BREAKING: Rugby Australia has avoided a costly and potentially embarrassing legal trial after reaching a settlement agreement with sacked Wallaby Israel Folau.

After 14 hours of negotiations RA apologised to Folau and his family, saying "while it was not Rugby Australia's intention, Rugby Australia acknowledges and apologises for any hurt or harm caused to the Folaus".Justin McManus

"Similarly, Mr Folau did not intend to hurt or harm the game of rugby and acknowledges and apologises for any hurt or harm caused," the two parties said in a joint statement issued on Wednesday afternoon.Loading RA maintains Folau breached the professional players' code of conduct with two social media posts condemning homosexuals to Hell and labelling as "evil" the legal recognition of transgender and intersex Australians.

Dead man walking.. DEVIL POLLUTION WITH CHURCH BRAINWASH SAME SAME STORY LOL FREAK

Pathetic

Rugby Australia lose the game and they lose at court as well.

lel

So all those principles and morals just melt away when a fat cheque is handed over? What was it that old J-dog allegedly said about a rich man entering the kingdom of heaven?

Israel 👌

What a joke I hope he never gets the opportunity to play any sport again

How about we reword this.. Israel Folau has avoided a costly and potentially embarrassing legal trial, blah blah blah!

In God we tru$t.

I am switching codes NO more of my $ for this muppet

SHAME on RA for giving in

Don’t apologise. Folau is an embarrassment to Christians. He does not represent Jesus’ views.

Now can he just piss off?

Folau is now free to pursue the position he is perfectly qualified for. Front bench of the Morrison Government.

Bigotry’s payday

Whatever it is congratulations to freedom of speech IzzyFolau

Hmm scared of losing?

If there are to be limited legal bills will Izzy and then ACLobby give back the money they fund raised? It was all for legal costs right?

Someone blinked and it wasn't the bible thumping biggot. Rugby Australia you lowered your colours and got owned by a homophobic grub of a person. Shame on you. I hope there was no external political influence on the move.

Brave brave man. Now time to sue every one who attacked his religious freedom.

Who says they paid him any money? He would be lucky if they just paid each other’s costs.

What else was going to happen?~seriously 💰

Show me the $’s Izzy.... Party time

Looks like Israel Folau is the winner here both $ and RugbyAU giving him an apology . Looks like Raelene Castle opted for taking the 3 points rather than going for the try line ... Gutless CEO and made Rugby Australia look like fools

Great win for religious freedom

Damn.

No it hasn’t. It has succumb to a bigot and paid money it shouldn’t have.

Folau's $14m compensation claim unresolved after 12-hour talksSacked Wallaby star Israel Folau will return to court on Wednesday as negotiations with Rugby Australia over his unfair dismissal claim remain deadlocked. That's because it's ridiculous Look, I tweet my views freely but this guy was bound by a multi million dollar a year contract not to contradict the views of his employer. He is clearly in breach of contact and his employers defence team should pursue this case to court, as admittedly, it could set a precedent Justice for IzzyFolau I hope this case forces the incompetent CEO Raelene Castle out. She is a disgrace and needs to go!!!

Australia just had its driest spring on record and summer will be a scorcher, BOM saysThis year is shaping up to be one of the driest - and hottest - on record. But how can that be!? Climate change is a hoax! It's almost like the climate is changing.... Climate septics: 'So no different to last year and the year before that. Hence climate change is Communist conspiracy for one world globalist Islamist LGBT Government.'
