Joe Marler reflects on his Israel Folau response that 'basically won twitter'

Comments

Former England prop Joe Marler joined Andy Goode on this week's Rugby Pod to discuss a number of different topics, the biggest of which was the Israel Folau controversy. Marler received a lot of support from fans for the way that he reacted to both Folau and the Billy Vunipola situation.

The Harlequins prop chose to let images do the talking, as he tweeted two pictures of men kissing to Folau, then tweeted a photo of Vunipola coming out of a nightclub drunk and with only a towel around his waist. You can view the tweets on his profile.

The Rugby Pod can be watched via Rugbypass TV

    Can we have a follow-up story on what Nigel Owens thought of it? Then another one on what Gareth Thomas thinks? Seriously, we haven't had enough of this story already...

      Yeah, this site should be about arguing over the legality of tackles, not dealing with some of the biggest social issues of the day when they become headline news around the world and involve some of the best players globally.
