Duncan Casey on row with IRFU: 'I was told to stop tweeting about Palestine'
The IRFU has said it asks employees not to express their personal beliefs in a way that will be associated with the rugby body, after a former Munster player claimed he was told to stop tweeting his opinion on the Middle East.
Duncan Casey, who played for Munster from 2013 to 2018, this week said that in 2014 the IRFU ‘panicked’ and asked him to ‘stop tweeting about Palestine’ after Mr Casey had made comments about the region in a press conference.
