People will have their reasons and will find their reasons to be reason enough.

What do you call someone who takes other people's money on false promises in order to enrich himself? 1. A drunk 2. A homosexual 3. An adulterer 4. A liar 5. A fornicator 6. A thief 7. An atheist 8.

Scoring basketball style tries for fun against a hopeless Bradford team at a fairly ramshackle stadium. Over 600 points scored in 13 games. Minor premiers. Unbeaten 100% record. But yes....... Very good.... They didn't hammer absolutely everyone, in every single game. Well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A politician Folau considers a higher purpose ... in politics (smh.com.au) Israel Folau’s mammoth legal fight against Rugby Australia for terminating his contract over his social media post which said homosexuals and other “sinners” would go to hell, appears to have given the 6ft 4 rugby union player a taste for the political.

Dunbar Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 It seems that Folau will play out a 2 year contract with Japanese club Shining Arcs Tokyo-Bay Urayasu first. And according to media reports his contract contains strict clauses relating to his social media activity. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/sport/2021/jul/05/israel-folau-makes-shock-return-to-rugby-union-after-signing-deal-in-japan Now, I know I don't have the moral compass of Folau but I do wonder why someone would spend a lot of (other people's) money to fight for freedom of expression, settle for a large amount, only to then voluntarily sign another contract that restricts these freedoms. Or am I being naive here and there are other factors in play that would influence his behaviour.
