COMMENT: I tell you something for nothing, the Pacific Islanders in Australian rugby (or for that matter, any rugby) can get as uptight as they like about Israel Folau's troubles - it doesn't change the fact that Folau deserves to be sacked.
Not because of his beliefs, and this is where all of those who have gone off have either misunderstood the problem or deliberately chosen not to understand it. But players, like all of us who work, enter into employment agreements.
Those agreements have broad terms and conditions, to which we agree to adhere to. You break those rules, there are consequences.
It doesn't mean you can't be Christian, or a swinger, or exceedingly unusual, it just means to all rub along in this business called a job we somehow need to co-exist in some sort of harmony.
And that requires, depending on who you are, what you do and what you believe, greater sacrifice for some over others. Obviously if the sacrifice is too great, you don't have to take the job.
