Former Wallaby Israel Folau has a surprise supporter for his return to rugby league in NRLW star Ali Brigginshaw, who is proudly in a same-sex relationship. 9News

Brigginshaw will be aiming to win back-to-back NRLW grand finals on Sunday. She said it has a State of Origin feel about it, beginning the mind games early and piling the pressure on St George Illawarra.

It highlighted a tense press conference between the two teams who are now clear rivals, after five ex-Broncos left the club for the Dragons at the end of last year. The Dragons have Dally M player of the year Jess Sergis on their side, who has scored three tries and busted 14 tackles at centre this season.

Meanwhile Brigginshaw denied any ill-feeling to the Dragons after the five players - including star hooker Brittany Brealey - all left in the off-season.

Folau gets surprise support from NRLW star'It's his opinion. I just wish he didn't share it on social media' 9WWOS NRL NRLW Haven’t read the article but the quote accompanying it is by no means supporting him. When has it ever been about Folau’s views, is it not all about the fact that he continued to post and promote his view via social media, going against the strict terms of his contract? I am sure that Folau is not the only person playing professional sport to share those views.
