Still not convinced we've seen the last of these cheats on the international stage, aussie press are claiming that the three of them are about to take legal action against cricket Australia over the ban, and CA are reputed to be weak kneed when it come to tackling the aussie pro cricketers association who are backing them.
Theyre crying because they’ve realised how much money they’re gonna lose! Can’t wait for a barmy army song for these sorry excuses for men! They’ve been found cheating and everyone in the game should be investigating if it’s the first time? ( I doubt it )
I spent some time working on one the other day: “Sonny ****ed her, Sonny ****ed her, Sonny ****ed her up the arse. In a toilet, she’s a harlot and it makes poor Warner cry.” It’s not about the cheating, granted, but I still enjoyed it.
That’s overstating it a bit, they’ve the option of taking legal action (and apparently got some legal advice before getting back to Australia), but it’s unlikely that they will.
smith and bancroft are young enough to play again. it's probable they will. they got a sentence and after that's done they'll be considered again. they're not going to be stupid enough to try anything again.
Well, yes. Melbourne. Quite difficult to forget that already, I'd have thought. (Not that I'm defending Cook's record - one swallow does not a summer make. His Test record this winter is: 2, 7, 37, 16, 7, 14, 244*, 39, 10, 5, 2, 2, 14. 399 @ 33.25 with that innings, 155 @ 12.9 without it. Not good enough.)
Don't forget that a lot of those innings were against the cheating Aussies. Who knows what he might of scored? But I think its unlikely he will play after this series. I wonder if any of those crying Aussies will have the balls to admit they did it in the Ashes as Warner has alledged?
Actually think Cook is burnt out, and has lost some motivation since losing the captaincy. Aggers said he as on his farm 2 weeks before the first test against NZ, and I think that is where his focus is now.
