Wallabies' star Israel Folau has stood by his comments on homosexuality and slammed Rugby Australia CEO Raelene Castle for 'misrepresenting' him.

In a column for the Player's Voice on Monday night, the full-back expressed his disappointment at the outcome of the meeting he held with Castle and Andrew Hore last Tuesday, revealing he offered to walk away from the game. 

Folau wrote: “After the meeting I went home, turned on the TV and was really disappointed with some of the things that were said in the press conference.

I felt Raelene misrepresented my position and my comments, and did so to appease other people, which is an issue I need to discuss with her and others at Rugby Australia.

That aside, I hope Raelene and Andrew appreciate my position, even if it differs with theirs.
