“At what point did someone at the Dragons think it would be a good idea to invite this shitstorm into their club?” Roberts, the former Souths and Manly enforcer, asked. “And that’s what it will be. You are welcoming this hurricane of offal. I would’ve thought the board and the coach could look at their position in rugby league, because this is about more than winning or losing.Advertisement
The Folau deal is being put together by veteran player agent Wayne Beavis, who also manages Griffin. The so-called football whisperer, Joe Wehbe, isn’t involved after he and Beavis fell out last year. Folau has told Dragons powerbrokers he has no intention of sermonising his views about homosexuality publicly any more, just as he promised with Catalans, although he said the same thing to Raelene Castle and look how well that turned out.
A case can be made for signing Folau to help the football team, although it’s not particularly strong.

awebster1975 He should be more accepting and tolerant of others. He expects the same of others that don't agree with him. Or does it only go one way?
awebster1975 Meanwhile in the SMH open-plan Clickbait Department: “I know❗️Let’s ask... Ian Roberts... what he thinks❗️He’s a gay ex Leaguie, isn’t he❓Not that there’s anything wrong with that❗️”
