JDB Federal Court Challenge

[Woodsie]

nice timeline
Folua...3pm
Debellin...4pm

Toddy and Beattie resign at 5pm...what a day that would be

Folau is a foregone conclusion ... it is an internal Rugby tribunal and only one outcome is really expected ...... it is whether Folau then takes Rugby to the Supreme court that will be interesting .....

De Belin on the other hand .... waiting waiting waiting ....

He’s taking rugby Australia to the Supreme Court and I think just my opinion will eventually head to the high court of Australia!!

I reckon nrl has no legs to stand on after today, JDB wins today I think , just a hunch.
Please let this verdict see Toddy and his mates have to fall on their swords.
Would be the best news all year.

#BREAKING Israel Folau is SACKED: Star rugby player has his $4million contract https://t.co/NBhcXw7ztY

Israel Folau is expected to launch action against Rugby Australia in the Supreme Court after his $4 million contract was officially terminated today.

As revealed by The Daily Telegraph, Folau will skip the option of a second code of conduct hearing and instead head straight to court, believing he has been unfairly dismissed due to his religious belief

Lawyers must just love the social media era

And the bad news is that every poster on this site is going to hell according to izzie

Courts on the other hand would hate it.
Social media would account for so many new cases of defamation bullying and in many other areas.
Sometimes you wonder if we have benefited from it at all.

Well we know which part of eternity is Party central

And it will be free of 'the game they play in heaven'

So basically a long drawn out court case to determine if Izzy's right to express his religious beliefs outweighs Rugby Australia's code of conduct.

So it boils down to does Izzy have the right to be a dickhead on social media while Qantas are paying his wage.

I want to know why Alan Joyce is not being held to account for wielding the considerable influence of one of Australia's largest companies in favour of his political and religious views.

He's lost his court case..bloody Greenturd and co survive...

Well, this sucks.

Thankfully for us Walker's case was heard last week and he was found not guilty. But this has now given the NRL carte blanche to enforce their stand down policy.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Yep Greenslime and Beatoff are currently opening the champagne!!

Bad luck JDB, still believe you are innocent until proven guilty!

[Bearfax]

I am gobsmacked. This is a monumental decision that attacks the very heart of the principle of innocent until proven guilty. It is a precedent totally against the decisions made at other courts dealing with almost identical issues. They should take this to the Supreme Court because this has very disturbing implications to a fundamental principle. I'm horrified that a judge would come to that conclusion. The law in this case is certainly the victim

 

[HappilyManly]

JDB would have been better served expediting his criminal case hearing.
Lots of monies wasted for an sideshow

The judge's reasoning will be interesting to read as it may help RU in their right to sack Izzy

 

[eaglebuzz]

On the plus side, at least we have Walker back.

 

[Simonmyers11]

Hearing is next year in June apparently, possibly longer? No wonder he was fighting the stand down. Could be another Brett Stewert saga, eventually found not guilty but career already ruined

 

[Harvies elbow]

Wonder if the 'Turd' will hold a gloating press conference...
