Irish Saint 835 Report post Posted February 12 I would like to thank League Express, (speedy arrival on Tuesday as always) for the thought provoking article by Steve Brady on the signing of Israel Folau. There was also an excellent letters page this week. Has my opinion now changed? Yes 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Irish Saint 835 Report post Posted February 12 Don't think I would be allowed to quote from the article Now, although I completely disagree with Folau comments, he should be allowed to play and who knows perhaps his beliefs might change. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is good when an articles, posts or comments get you to think about what you believe. I think you're right about Folau because it's no good saying you're inclusive when you make a point of excluding. And time in SL, where I hope people feel differently and will engage him in experiences that change his mind.
