If people don't want Izzy in the game so be it but don't upset about that yet criminal convictions are ok.
Robert Lui was released from the Tigers for beating up his wife and then made SL his home? You cool with that?'"
Lui didn't say everyone should beat their wife, or that all women deserve a beating (which is, in effect, what Folau said about homosexuals)
I have asked this question before, how is hitting a woman any worse than hitting a man?, violence is violence.
using a phrase like "you cool with that" is letting that mask slip. |

Only a crass RLfans poster would link to an article about a man who has just died, along with 8 others (including his daughter)

It's not but I don't buy someone inflicting violence on an innocent party is somehow more tolerable than words someone used. |

Come on, that has nothing to do with this discussion and by bringing expansion into the argument, you are deliberately or otherwise, deflecting the heat from the issue.
Catalan have signed numerous "bad boys" but, to argue in favour or against expansion based on this is just ridiculous. |

| Quote: Superted "Same old same old, everybody is up in arms because we need to be ‘inclusive’, but only to those who hold the same views as them.
I don’t agree with his comments, I have my own personal views on him as an individual (and anyone else who can follow religion to the extremes), but you can’t exclude someone due to their religious beliefs - that’s not ‘inclusive’.
Putting it on social media is wrong, and there needs to be sanctions outlined for if he does that (which it appears there are), but what he’s done isn’t a hate crime, he wasn’t punished legally, and his victory over the ARU shows that if push comes to shove, excluding him from the sport would be illegal. Now most clubs you’d like to think would look at him and think ‘yeah, he’s potentially a great player (though probably not now at his age and having been in Union so long), but actually, our clubs culture and belief systems are so different to his, that his talents aren’t worth compromising our standards for’... Catalan clearly don’t have that self-worth, which can also be seen in their approach to professionalism elsewhere (see Kenny Edwards recent comments)
The best response is to do exactly what Wigan have done - show that whilst he may hold ridiculous and bigoted views, the rest of us are well and truly on the opposite side of the argument to him.
Live and let live folks - just shake your head at him, and the Catalan club.'"
A good post. |

It was an observation, those defending the signing of this homophobe also seem to be pro Toronto. |

What odds would I get for Catalans to beat Wigan in the Grand final and Folou to score the winning try?

you are entitled to your opinion, the morality of it is something for you to wrestle with yourself. |

I think it's a safer bet that when he receives less than warm welcomes on his travels and the Dragons choke it again this season, that he'll be unable to help himself and say something again.
In fact, they've put in a cast iron get out clause for him by saying that his contract is void if anything occurs. I can see him exercising that in the future if all doesn't go according to his plan. |
