Pride Jersey

[Hacky McAxe]

Nope, you won’t get that here. Mods protect one group but will not protect the other group. It’s plain for all to see.

There has only been a few posts deleted in this thread. Each one used a very offensive homophobic slur. And one was offensive to a religion. Each have been reported.

If something offends you, report it.

I like my NRL agenda free, Sport is supposed to unit people not cause division, would a agenda that goes against traction be supported?

Agree-

They’re terrified of offending someone, so they offend everyone

The hypocrisy is illuminating for me...

They claim to refuse on religious grounds... but, without assuming their religion, I assume their religion/s are also opposed to gambling and alcohol.

the team plays at 4 pines stadium (Alcohol) and is sponsored by Pointsbet....

It is almost like this is the only issue that is decisive enough to get some traction... so lets have at it

Didn't bother going through the whole thread, but can imagine some of the dribble that has come out.

Rapists, abusers, addicts, alcoholics, adulterers, criminals, paedos ... all can be found within the great game of ours.

But, let's chuck a hissy fit because of a few rainbow lines. Yep, that certainly sounds right ...

And for all those who think wearing Gambling and Alcohol sponsorship on jerseys is hypocritical then you need to educate yourselves a bit. Alcohol and gambling is permitted in Christianity. It’s only sinful when it’s done in excess to the point where it affects the individual and their family. E.g gambling all your money and not having enough left over to put food on the table for your children. There’s a difference.

I have no problems with what side of the bed someone sleeps on however this is going a bit far.
Supporting and recognizing first nations is one thing but supporting one lifestyle over another is something else.
Will we be having a vegan round next or how about a "salute to the Bogan" round or have the teams fighting it out for the"Crazy Cat Lady Shield"

Apparantly Manly will be first NRL club to wear LGBTIQA kit

What are your thoughts if the Dogs go the same way with a Bulldogs LGBTIQA kit?

Happy to support them

 

[Chris Harding]

There is a massive problem. What about the players religious beliefs. Christians and Muslims are against "LBGTIQA" and it's a huge sin to support that rubbish by wearing it and supporting the idea.

Simplest thing is to let players decide individually, according to their conscience.

"Three Manly players are said to have had a “change of heart” and are considering wearing the club’s pride jersey.

Initially, seven players stood down from selection for Thursday’s game against the Roosters over the club’s decision to wear a LGBTQIA kit.

Speaking on Channel 7’s Sunrise, Michelle Bishop explained “at least” three are now re-considering their actions."

Gee, you release their names and paint them to be anti-homo and wonder why they have had "a change of heart" I can only imagine the backlash they and their families are facing.

Give in and apologise or get cancelled, isn't that how it works.

 

[south of heaven]

Hopefully the rainbow people start music festivals to outrage hipsters and " influencers "
The big gay out , splendour in the arse, that's a cause worth supporting

Yep, they'll probably be thrown out in front of the cameras reading statements about how they support the abcdefu community and were wrong to say they wouldn't wear the unicorn jerseys, they'll have apologies read out and rose petals thrown into the air as Ian Roberts sits in the front row crying into tissues he used earlier to masterbate into.

 

[SKY-DOG]

I’m just glad it’s not our club dealing with this. Imagine the headlines.

 

[Rod67]

Why cant we have bogan round?
The jerseys are made from flanno material in their clubs colors.

Tradies round anyone?

Sponsored by Bunnings.

 

[Rod67]

I would’ve been less surprised if this were the Tri Colours as they’re far from Manly.

Oh the Irony.

 

[Mr Beast]

Too many reports coming from this thread. Everyone has their own opinion, beliefs and views. Leave it at that.

Damn! Your right, I should have known that, I was in media and advertising for 20+ years and the "pink dollar" has always been worth a lot!

 

[Precise]

They have "Pointsbet" splashed across their chest, play at "4 pines stadium" while also playing alongside Dylan Walker every week. That's all absolutely okay though

Why do you keep sperging out ignoring the fact that they’re Christians which have no issue with alcohol or gambling?

Or does that get in the way of the good double standards angle you’ve been throwing out all thread.
