There really is something wrong with people who are up in arms about Folau’s signing.
Bird was convicted of smashing a glass in his girlfriends face, Lui beat his wife up, Monaghan performed a sexually explicit act on a dog and the list goes on....yet all were allowed to resurrect their careers over here.
Folau spoke out about what his beliefs are and what his religion states, and it is the crime of the century !
To make matters worse Wigan announce a LGBT day to show they don’t agree with him playing in SL yet they are the biggest foster home for bad boys !
I can’t wait to see Folau tear it up in SL, but I certainly won’t be going to the charade at Wigan !

A few years ago there was a lower grades player at the Newcastle Knights with a similar fundamentalist christian background to Folau. His father was also a preacher in an obscure sect (like Folau's).
No one cared much when he started to have prayer meetings after training with most of the polynesian players, in fact, he was even encouraged to put up a weekly bible quote on the Knights official website, but he posted a long rant on his personal blog about conversion therapy for gays and got in a lot of trouble with the NRL and the club.
The point of this is that at least half a dozen of his "followers" have played or are playing in the ESL now, and I was just looking at some highlights of a trial involving a lower grade side, and his best mate had a really good game against an ESL side.
Many polynesians have very similar views to Folau. Maybe most of them in fact.
