Re: Izzy, what the HELL!!
Folau was dumped like a shit sandwich by Asics and Land Rover. Obviously they care about their brand. Which raises the question; are these companies also able to be taken to court by Folau for religious discrimination? He could be in line for a heck of a payday. If they used any pressure to have hi...
