Chiefs star Brad Weber has spoken out against Australian international Israel Folau, after the Wallaby posted anti-gay material online.

Folau, known to be a Christian, said that God’s plan for homosexuals was “hell”, unless they chose to “repent of their sins”.

Despite the tirade, the Rugby Australia opted not to sanction the fullback, as they claimed he “never intended to hurt anyone”.

However, the scandal has not gone unnoticed in Super Rugby.

Weber took to Twitter to voice his displeasure with both the comments themselves, and also the silence from his fellow players.

In a series of tweets, Weber also revealed that certain members of his family were homosexual and as such that Folau’s opinions hit particularly close to home.

Folau has also offered to walk away from his Rugby Australia contract a year early, if the oransiation thought his presence in the team was adversely affecting the game of rugby.
