[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 942183, member: 20605"] Well regardless of anything else, non-compete clauses have nothing whatever to do with Folau's troubles here. The matter is relatively simple 1. Rugby Australia have a policy 2. They rightfully expect their employees to abide by that policy, and contract them to do so 3. Folau violated that policy and was warned that if he did so again, he would be fired 4. Folau agreed to not violate that policy 5. Folau then violated that policy again I can't see how anyone can complain about what RA has done here. The argument that Folau could have signed the contract in bad faith thinking that he knew certain clauses were unenforceable is just a whole bunch of completely spurious bu[COLOR=#000000]lls[/COLOR]hit. There are certain elements of contract law that talk about bargaining and contracting in good faith. When he signed, he accepted all the clauses. Its also worth noting that when Folau crossed the line the first time, he made a public statement to the effect that if his continuing to play rugby ever became incompatible with his religious beliefs, he would walk away from rugby. He hasn't done that, so that makes him a liar, and accordong to his own rant, he is going straight to hell. [/QUOTE]
