An Australian rugby supporter has burned his Wallabies jersey in disgust at Rugby Australia's sacking of former Wallabies fullback Israel Folau.
Folau's $4 million contract was torn up on Friday after a three‑person independent panel found him guilty of a high‑level code of conduct breach for a social media post warning homosexuals, among others, were headed for hell.
Rugby Australia's call prompted a fiery outburst from a fan calling himself MV Podcast, who posted a video on his Facebook page showing his gold Wallabies jersey engulfed in flames.
He wrote, he had been a Wallabies fan for 25 years, always found a way to defend them despite the zero success Rugby Australia has had for years adding he has not seen a World Cup Championship since 1999, has not seen the Bledisloe since 2002 but somehow he found a way to defend and support them.
He says he can no longer defend them after the Israel Folau sacking adding Folau one of his all time favorite players can no longer make a living off of Rugby, whilst others who have broken laws continue to play.
