Let them stand down. They'll be outed when they aren't named in the squad this week. I'm not saying they should be then harassed for their views, but it allows them to express their convictions and the match to go ahead with the jerseys as the club planned.

It's up to them and the club as to how them refusing to play affects their pay etc. If they want to live their lives in accordance with a 2000 year old doctrine, then go for it. Although, I have to admit, if the players knew nothing about it until this week, which has been reported, Manly should have flagged the idea first so it didn't blow up.

Already been named, no?

I've been posting in this thread on and off for a while, and I have just noticed it says 'Offical' instead of 'Official'.

Yet never the level of outrage when a female Aussie Rules player also refused to wear the pride jersey because of her religious beliefs. Twitter never disappoints either.
as someone who follows a lot of people on Actual Left Twitter (as opposed to the odd kook right wingers dig out and claim as representative of ""the left"") i can say with great confidence that those on the left who do follow female sports weren't happy with her either
Gandhi Hasler doing a presser now
what he say?

But the drama is not over as The Daily Telegraph reported the Sea Eagles were battling to name a team as a “handful of would-be first timers knocked back a chance to play the game” because of similar reasons to the seven players who have stood down over the jersey.

oh dear..

Good to see those brothers defy this being forced onto them.

When you wear the 'pride jersey' you are not just subscribing to gay marriage (which I have no problem with)....you are subscribing to everything that is happening today--- gay pride parades where half naked men wear dog collar and leases, and spank each other on the ass, and 'woke' parents bring their young kids to see this garbage.

Also, these 'drag queen' story hours, where some of these 'drag queens' in America have been charged with possessing child abuse material.

This LGBT mob keeps getting bolder and bolder....good to see people resist it being forced upon them.

Get woke, go broke.

What have you got against collars and leashes ffs? WAC
Honestly, nothing. But kids seeing this stuff will damage them. I was introduced to porn at a young age and, like a lot of people, it messed me up.

This is just not something children should see.
