Unfortunately some public identities just thrive on division and in many cases just for self interest and opportunism . May get some things right sometime but hardly promoting a better society with this type of discourse

Not sure if this has been posted yet.
But well worth a listen for a brief but measured response on where the (not playing) players are coming from and where we can go with this (if everyone stays calm).

Community is a big deal for these players...lets try and keep them in ours as well (i.e. Manly and the NRL) so we can all grow 🙂

tolerance for all does not mean we have to accept intolerance

Brilliant & very true!

Interesting that many people's first response is to show sympathy for the 7 players by claiming not respecting their religious beliefs is intolerant when the real issue is that their beliefs even exist in this day & age.

Let's look at this another way.

Nrl is a multi billion dollar workplace made up of multiple organisations. It isn't just a "game" as some say. They are professionals, this is their career and job. By accepting their contract they agree to be the face and spokespeople for their company.

Now let's ask ourselves this. If another major company had 40% of their spokespeople come out and refuse to endorse inclusiveness by having their uniform changed for 80min to include a rainbow....what would be the response?

All workplaces, as has been stated, have equal opportunity and inclusiveness clauses now.

No argument from me. He's member of Pauline Hanson's Australia Racism Party. This party via Pauline Hanson started off having a dig at Asians, then moved to Muslims, and I've seen recently now having a go at Aboriginals. Vile.

I really like that hypothetical...mainly because I have no idea what the answer would be.
But, I imagine that it wouldn't be a good thing for the company if they didn't get their s*$# together real quick. Which probably ain't a great sign for our club

LOL @ Simeon!

Seven Manly players flag end to their controversial pride jersey boycott

The club’s owner revealed the breakthrough just an hour before the undermanned NRL side was set to take the field tonight.

The “ godlike “ (in his own mind ) WANKER

Anyone who disagreed with his views ( and then said so )immediately had their post removed and were booted.

 

[eagleron]

I do, quite strongly.

Approx 3-4% identify as LGBTQI (likely under reported), to dismiss the contribution to society or Rugby League is.....well it confounds me personally.

As a side note, I just gogled and 3.3% of the population is indigenous as a comparison.

Unless your argument is that Ian Roberts is actually the only LGBTQI person ever involved in Rugbya League.

If that is the case i can 100% tell you that is incorrect. As FACT.

What a gronk Latham is, I can see why he's teamed up with Hanson, she needed someone to share her brain cell with, how this d1ckhead got within a whisper of running the country is frightening, although it would have prepared us all for the rise of the equally brain dead political genius Morrison I guess

That bloke is a moron, a classic case of Napoleon Complex

It really annoys me that he calls his group 'The Official' facebook group, yet it has no connection to the club whatsoever. All he does is repost what the club puts up there.
I wonder if the club has any power to demand he take 'official' off the title?

 

[Merdy33]

Is there any reports of player unrest? as in are any of those 7 players considering asking for releases?

If they requested a release, then I can’t see them getting another gig in the NRL. Any club who signed them would be seen to be supporting their stance.
To be honest I don’t think the NRL would ratify a new contract with another club as it would also be seen to be supporting them.
I think it will be a case of Manly keeping them, and to be honest I’m not sure we can restrict them from playing, they haven’t broken any laws. Maybe they have broken a workplace agreement? I don’t know. This might be one for the lawyers.
But as their employer I expect it will be Manly’s legal responsibility to look after their welfare.

It's clear to me that you are delusional, does a community have to change their culture? When was the last time anyone convinced you to change your mind on anything? Heaven to bit I've tried to change your thought pattern all your life! and you still think I'm an idiot?

When family fights, it's time to back away and give them some room......

 

[ricardo]

Anyone else dressing up for the game ??

Mate, we don't fight @byso too big a gorilla. Learnt my life lesson, it's pointless fighting, I loose every time, even when I'm right I lose - I'm married.

Looking forward to tonight, @byso & me have a bet on a bottle of red, he reckon a crowd less than 7,000, I reckon there be more than 9,000 all wearing rainbows even if its not the Manly jumper. I reckon the crowd will be big!!! even if it is a protest of sort. Even sent @byso my address for the bottle of red, just in case he forgot.

Further to what you say, how dare he speak on behalf of all supporters, what a tool!

It started as being called “ Manly Sea Eagles “ , it’s why he has so many members.

The “ official “ is just more bull**** from this wanker.

He believes himself to be a god amongst men , the knower of all things Manly.

The dribble he writes is hilarious.

But you dare not disagree otherwise, “ gonski “.
