    RD 14: QLD v NSW (The Stink Part II) - Lang Park 18/5 7.45

    I tried looking for the rule, but I could have sworn you weren't allowed to stand under the goal during a conversion attempt?

    The Israel Folau saga

    Jeep, I acknowlege what you've written, but I feel this in particular has been debated throughly enough and that I've articulated a response from the other side in the previous pages.

    The Israel Folau saga

    Have a listen to Turinuri's take on all of this on the Rugby Ruckas. He specifically mentions that it won't be an issue as there are plenty of issues that the 30-40 blokes in/around the Wallabies all differ on. They're able to put that aside and play. Look at your workplace and ask who voted...

    The Israel Folau saga

    I don't think that analogy is quite flushed out to be a direct comparison. But I'll try to fit a square peg a round hole for you. From the announcement perspective. If Israel announced to the world that he was Christian and believe's in God + the teachings of God. I couldn't see a problem with...

    The Israel Folau saga

    Yeap we do. Andrew Brennan, a Professional Footballer came out yesterday and provided some pretty insightful words. https://www.news.com.au/sport/sports-life/im-gay-former-aleague-player-andy-brennan-reveals-his-homosexuality-in-historic-first/news-story/4b1b3859acd5c83e6d1696cd94056829 It...

    Reds 2019

    I'm fine with Lucas being forced to the JWC preparation, he'll get more game time there than with the Reds. However, I think with the NH season coming to an end, that the Reds should be asking RA to assist with some injury cover then. Surely there's an outside back we can sign for a 2 month stint?

    Wallabies 2019 Thread

    At this stage, I'd be worried about Pocock's body holding up the entire campaign. If he can get through the next month + RC without any time off then I'd be happy for him to be starting. But, picking him over Hooper means you're going to be a man down in the squad.

    Any younger and he'd be pulling the Year 12's out of school!

    I think this whole conversation has gone over your head if that's your take away.

    The Israel Folau saga

    Gnostic, perhaps the fundamental difference we have is on what suppression of speech is. You appear to have a more liberal take on free-speech and correct me if I'm wrong, but nothing should inhibit it. Whereas, I believe (and I would say that the original Australian law makers agree) that there...

    Rd 13: Rebels v Reds @ Melbourne 10/5/19 7.45 pm

    No idea why, but it shits me to no end seeing Quade and Hodge being more concerned. About ripping the ball than making a tackle.

    The Israel Folau saga

    I don't think people are right in saying what Folau is hate speech. More that the views Folau expressed are no longer tolerated by a lot of members of our society. Women and black/coloured Australians, Americans and across the globe had to push the status quo to gain the same rights as their...

    The Israel Folau saga

    Spik, I think that's a bit of a head in sand type of argument you're making. Joyce is saying, in the aviation industry, mistakes should only happen once which everyone learns from and moves on with that knowledge. But, in any event if we take your comparison of airline accidents vs the threat...

    The Israel Folau saga

    I've read the Coddling of the American Mind and listened to a couple of podcasts Johnathn has been on. I don't think what we're talking about here is quite the points he was trying to get across. The main points he and Greg are trying to demonstrate is, we need to build our children up and...

    The Israel Folau saga

    Honestly, I think Farr-Jones's comments show how little intelligence and maturity Folau has. You know what we do with employees who can't read between the lines and make educated decisions. They get performance managed.

    Ballymore Redevelopment

    Hmmm, does this mean the proposal of using Perry Park as a new 10-20,000 stadium is completely shot?

    Curious why you (and Folau) chose to leave out the last bit.

    The Israel Folau saga

    While I doubt it will happen, from a transparency perspective, it'd be great if the decision ruling was made public. That'll then allow everyone to clearly see what was put forward and how they determined it being a High level breach and why any punishment is necessary.

    "After consultation with our friends and members of the LGBT community, we will be willing to continue our employment of Israel after he pays a monetary fine and spends a period of time learning from how his actions impacts others. We will support Israel as he takes the opportunity to grow as an...

    The Israel Folau saga

    I wouldn't be surprised if that is RA's first port of call. Suspend Folau for the rest of the Super Rugby season. Send him to be invovled with the Gay community, attend AA meetings etc and allow him to see first hand what it's like. Send him to club land until the Rugby Championship and see if...
