And his strongly biased views is likely to affect his objectivity when investigating crimes which casts strong doubt on his arrests.

And copping a serious backlash about it. Calling it "the fight of his life" hasn't compared well against the terminally ill and other genuine cases who want money for medical treatment.

A bloke who's earned millions over a 10 year sporting career seeking everyday people to donate money to him to pay for lawyers to sue Rugby Australia to get more millions (and potentially bankrupt Rugby Australia in the process) isn't getting a lot of sympathy for some reason.

I understand he does or used to tithe a lot of his earnings to the Church, so maybe just ask for some back?

Yep stui ask for it back!

What a shithead, I can’t believe people are putting money in, not a chance in hell even if I was on his side!!

i just signed a petition to take the page down!

This is politics now, apparently: a pantomime in which the only priority is that villains get their comeuppance, structural considerations be damned. I have no particular opinion on whether Folau should be able to crowdfund his legal fees, but this petition seems pretty puerile, and it would probably be a bad precedent if Gofundme acceded to the request.

I’ve been thinking of writing a piece on this, obviously in support of Folau. Won’t the reaction to that be edifying.

You'd reckon as long as folks are honest about what they're raising money for, and it isn't for something illegal, they should be allowed to do it.

Well, yeah, pretty much. But I doubt many people signing that petition have a strong view on the ethics of crowdfunding or have even thought a great deal about such principles. All that matters is that Folau is a bad guy and Something Must Be Done.
