Israel Folau offered to apologise for his controversial homophobic Instagram post and conceded it could have been hurtful to young gay people, explosive court documents have revealed.
Documents seen by news.com.au revealed Folau admitted in May during an independent Rugby Australia tribunal hearing into his high-level breach of contract that his comments were not in line with the values of the sporting organisation, as set out in the Rugby Australia code of conduct.
The revelation, as claimed in court documents submitted by Rugby Australia, could be a major blow to the $10 million damages claim Folau is seeking in the Federal Circuit Court.
