Christian NRL player Max King says Israel Folau's beliefs deserve to be valued and hopes the league will reconsider its decision to block him from re-entering the competition.
The Canterbury prop insisted "every fan and spectator" wanted to see the return of ex-State of Origin player Folau, who has been hoping to seal a mid-season move to Wests Tigers this year.
Folau's wife Maria took to social media last week to accuse Australian Rugby League Commissioner Wayne Pearce of stymying the NRL return over "inclusiveness" concerns.
