As he is about to be sacked from Rugby Union today, do you think Storm would welcome him back or won’t he pass the “no dickhead” policy?

Don't have the money, (and with Izzy it's ALL about the money) and frankly I don't think we really need or want him back. Thanks for your past service and stuff, but...

Also, the role of a rugby fullback is way different to a League fullback and I suspect there would be a substantial transition time back to anything like his former best.

Besides, one of the things we love about the Storm is the way the club works to include the fans. I'm not sure that adding an outspoken religious bigot to the squad is going to help out.

It will be interesting to see which other league and union players have liked his post.

I used to worship him when he played for us, amazing skill and all. However, I would not want him playing for us now. Storm is an inclusive environment, and a disruptive influence is not what we want or need.

No it's not, he left here saying "he wanted to be closer to his family". Over time it became blatantly obvious that his family moved where the money was.

I$rael "show me the money" Folau, NO THANK YOU.

Suli and the Fox have much better character.
