Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2305066, member: 1992"] FFS.....if the focus is on Folau at Origin time then it's the media and the dickheads responding to the questions about Izzy who are to blame. If we're not talking about it then where's the issue ?? Origin is about many issues, Folaus future is just one thing. What's to talk about anyway ?? It will be old news by the time Origin 2s on and then , if selected, Folaus future will be mentioned only in passing. The argument suggesting it will divert focus is piss poor, don't fall for it. The people suggesting that are the very ones who'd bring it up all the time. How dumb is it to weaken the Origin side so as to punish a player because he's retiring from rugby league. Next year is next year. I remember Scott Draper retiring from tennis to go and play golf for a living , this is no different. For once Darren Lockyer, in my opinion, should have kept his own opinion to himself. Imagine Lockyer retiring at the end of the year and getting a new role as an ambassador for snooker, spruiking the merits of the game on a worldwide stage and highlighting Australias World Champion Robertson. Not a soul would suggest he be dropped from Origin. I know that's hypothetical but the point is there. An idiotic decision to drop Folau if that's what happens. Irrational, emotional, juvenile, pedantic and reactionary. [/QUOTE]
