Israel Folau could have his rugby league career revived by the British Rugby Leagueโs New York franchise.
According toย The Daily Telegraph, New York chief executive Ricky Wilby called the former Wallaby to pitch to him joining the club.
While no official offer was made, a follow-up conversation is expected in the coming weeks.
The report states that New York officials believe Folau showed preliminary interest in joining the club.
โIt was an introductory call to explain the community ethos behind the club and about how we will engage with all groups across the New York area,โ Wilby toldย The Daily Telegraph.
โWe also spoke about how we want to grow the team and game organically in the United States and how the large foundations of what this club will be built on will be community-based. But I donโt want to people to think we have automatically signed him.โ
It is understood that Folau is still weighing up other options.
The NRL has banned the 30-year old from returning to Australian rugby league.
I have it on good authority that Izzy wants in at Souffs
Izzy and SBW would be solid in the Suoer league with that Totonto team.
SJW’s meltdown begins now
Why not, while youโre at it throw in Addo Carr lol
I have it on good authority souths are signing up the entire NSW and QLD state of origin teams without having to shed any more players.
Thats what Easts have been doing for decades, Souths haven’t got to their level and never will , we only spend what we have no brown paper bags here , I must admit the Easts guys have done a good job distracting league fans of Easts terrible history of buying players and comps, but it will always remain a burdon and a chip on their shoulder, something they will have to live with forever.
Penso
if we’ve been doing it or so long why then, after all these years hasn’t anything EVER come out…
Admit that you are just JEALOUS buddy and move on…
A little lesson for you…. JEALOUSY works the opposite way you want it to.
we do the right thing and we do it better than most…
we have very clever coaching staff
we demand the best out of everyone involved with the club
we are the greatest team of the modern era
WE ARE BACK TO BACK PREMIERS
Exactly Lidcombe. I can’t wait for Fitzsimmons and his OUTRAGE warriors to start throwing themselves off cliffs in protest.
He’s joining the chickens as cover for Latrell – since that little weasel aka Billi Smith popped a tyre.. (sure Sammy wished he could have ripped off his head instead of just a handful of hair)… lol
Where’s Latrell again ??
Getting back to the subject, I really like what they are trying to do in North America. Izzy joining NY would be a great thing to behold. He probably wouldn’t play many games, (UK Division 3 is like schoolboy stuff) but use him as a poster boy to promote the game. As long as he keeps his religion to himself then he should go well.

BEAUTIFULLY EXPRESSED YOUNG LADY … ARE YOU A WRITER?
Folau can’t be allowed back into professional sport. He thinks homosexuals go to hell, which is of course basically as bad as being a serial killer.
Canโt cover up the truthful facts penso, you; we see believe your own lies, but everybody else who doesnโt support Souths can see with their very own eyes what South’s have transformed into. Souths undoubtedly are the Sombrero Giants these last few years and to top it off are 4th according to the NRL in the TPA rankings For money spent beyond the salary cap.
Just think every Roosters and Souths fan in the world needs to know that no one else cares about your club so if youโd like to keep your opinions about your club to yourself it would be hugely appreciated
