Joe Marler - Hero

Not sure if many of you have seen, Izzy Folau is yet again
tweeting & instagramming homophobic messages relating it to
religion.
I just wanted to commend Marler for his responses. In typical
Marler fashion he has sent Folau numerous pictures of men
kissing.
Surely if one of the ‘less big time’ players were tweeting or
saying some of the things Folau does, they’d have their contract
voided. How does he get away with this?

Beyond brilliant (Joe I mean). I'd ideally have preferred Folau
to keep his views to himself but since he's proven that he
can't, he can take them with him when, in an ideal world, the
governing body bans him from the game. Just can't stand these
views. Utterly repugnant.

He gets away with it because Australian Rugby would love to duck
the issue completely given it's a RWC year and he's a big star.
I'm not sure they can hold that telescope to the blind eye for
much longer.

Rugby Australia made a statement saying unacceptable and
referred to their integrity unity, let's hope this time there is
actually a consequence.

Completely agree. I thought they sat down with him and literally
demanded that he keep schtum in future though. Which clearly
worked really well...

Have just learned Folau's comments this time fall a year to the
day since he was reprimanded. What a gimp.

I started reading Folau's tweet but it just seemed to be
religious quoting. Am I missing something? Was there more that I
didn't read?

Did you not see the new article it was relating too?
Plus I suggest you look on Instagram, I think then you’ll
understand the uproar on the situation

What sorrow for those who say that evil is good and good is
evil, that dark is light and light is dark, that bitter is sweet
and sweet is bitter.
