Wallaby star Israel Folau is ‘banishing’ gay people again!

South African rugby is well aware of Israel Folau’s silky skills on the field.

But that doesn’t extend to his use of social media.

The Waratahs and Wallabies fullback is in hot water again after another controversial comment over gay people.

After posting a religious picture on his Instagram account, he was asked by a follower what is “God’s plan” for homosexuals.

Later on in the comments thread, Folau replied: “HELL… unless they repent of their sins and turn to God.”

His comment has been subsequently deleted.

Compounding the situation is the fact that Folau previously professed to “love and respect all people”.

He unleashed similar outage last year when he publicly opposed the Australian government’s push to pass same-sex marriage legislation.
