Manly-Warringah Rugby League captain Daly Cherry-Evans believes his team can take a positive out of what was a controversial week in which the club decided the team would wear an LGBTQ-inspired uniform in Thursday night’s game without consulting players first, a move which led to seven players refusing to play on religious or cultural grounds.
Speaking to the media after the game, in which the Sea Eagles lost 20-10 to the Sydney Roosters, Cherry-Evans said it’s important to understand all the players’ backgrounds and points of view.
