Can the NRL be LGBTQI inclusive without excluding religious players?

The Manly NRL pride jersey story has blown up into a complete fiasco. The club introduced a pride jersey, with four rainbow stripes to celebrate diversity in rugby league. Seven players who say they were blindsided by the move said they didn’t want to take the field in the jersey because of culture and religious reasons.

Michelle Bishop is Seven News’ sports reporter. She has the inside story on how it all went so spectacularly wrong.

Our own Tom Tilley and Antoinette Lattouf bring their own perspectives to the story. Tom was raised in a Pentecostal church and knows what it’s like to live within the guidelines of your beliefs. And Antoinette wrote a book about diversity and inclusion, ‘How to Lose Friends and Influence White People.’ In this Briefing, Tom and Antoinette bring their unique take on the Manly pride fiasco.
