So Manly launched a gay pride short and seven players are refusing to play in it on religious grounds, even though they are sponsored by a betting company and the ground is sponsored by a brewing company!

I forgot this pearler, a commentator over here said this,
"If I'm into BDSM does it mean Manly will play in leather shirts and chaps".
I know some will take this serious but I nearly fell off the chair laughing at that comment!.

I liked James Grahams summary
Let's just say that they wore the jersey I don't think that affects your religious beliefs and let's Fast forward hopefully a fair few more years and the player dies get to heaven meet God and hes says
“how do you think you went?”
“well I helped out in the community went to church did a lot for the community did the cross every time I went onto the field did the cross every time I scored a try and attributed everything that was positive in my life to you God thing I think i did really well”
“like yeah agree, agree on all that I'm just one quick thing round 20, 2022 for manly wore those rainbow colours on your Jersey........ no you're not coming in see you"

Virtue signalling by Manly. Is it not enough that a club supports minority groups by having a women’s team; wheelchair team etc.?
Are we no longer allowed to have an opinion contrary to the current narrative?
These players are not wishing harm on anyone and I for one applaud them for their stance.
Too often these days people buckle under the pressure of highly vociferous and intolerant minority groups.
Live and let live, but we don’t all need to share the same views.
Be kind to one another irrespective of colour, creed, sexuality etc.

It’s a rainbow on a shirt In 1 round of rugby
The narrative is that everyone should be free to love whoever they want without persecution
If you disagree with that you’re a knob and I make no apology for that stance

Poor judgment by the club not to consult their players.

This is why free speech and freedom of choice is disappearing.

The Manly boys obviously have very strong opinions not unlike yourself Wigan forever 1985 just because you don't agree with their stance doesn't make them "A knob", in my personal opinion they have been ostricized because they don't believe in the same ideals as a group who are all about inclusiveness, maybe some groups of people need to take a look in the mirror!. Everybody is entitled to free speech, everybody, not just when the cap fits!.
