'There was no intention to hurt anyone': Billy Vunipola on his social media saga
England and Saracens star Billy Vunipola has spoken further about his controversial support for Israel Folau.
The 26-year-old was a key part of Saracens’ Champions Cup semi-final win over Munster, putting the icing on the cake with a 72nd minute try in his man-of-the-match performance.
Vunipola, who was previously issued a formal warning by the RFU for a homophobic social media post, opened up about the saga after the match.
Following the post, Vunipola has copped boos whenever he has touched the ball in appearances against the Bristol Bears and now Munster.
However while Vunipola doubled-down on his stance he reiterated that he had never intended to cause anyone pain.
