Aussies 2018 tour of South Africa Spoilers

[hobbo]

Cmon Hap, if there is one nation who has no right to point the finger at adopted sportsmen, it’s Austrslia. And actors. And musician’s, and even politicians.

Yeah but at least we don't combine with the NZ and the Pacific Islands and call ourselves Great Australia when we can't win as individual nations

When it comes to League you may as well …,

Back to the cricket .... I'm surprised the Aussies had to resort to premeditated
CHEATING ...
Very , very poor leadership and poor culture from Australia's number 1 sporting team .
Beyond PATHETIC ..

Don't you mean NSW's favourite sporting team Hobbo

Nah mate …
Wests Tigers are NSW's favorite sporting team :smiley:
Even you Queenslanders seem to think so !

 

[hobbo]

This could be a great opportunity for a company like Bosch to sponsor the Aussie cricket team !

They could supply cordless sanders for all the players to keep in there pockets
:roll

I'm starting to think so Hobbo

At the end of Junior's game on Friday I said "Time to go watch WT's kick the Broncos asses "

Two different parents from two of the new boys both said they were WT's fans :sign:

 

[mcguires_penalty]

I think they even lied during the confession. That didn't look like yellow adhesive tape to me. That looked like sandpaper. Even more pre-meditated if that is the case.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

What will the punishments be?

Bancroft 5 years
Warner 2 years
Smith 2 years

Too severe or not severe enough?

 

[supercoach]

Look I have no doubt all teams are guilty of it and very few captains if any would put their hand up and take ownership of the fact they cheated. Most would let the poor bloke with the sand paper take the hit, but now they have been caught and the playing group has put their hand up, the board must lay down some really harsh penalties.
Smith should get at least a three test ban along with Bancroft, this is right up there with the under arm bowling in term of harming Australians reputation

 

[halifax_tiger]

has a wests tigers pom.im amazed what your team has done smith and bancroft.and senior players? basically cheats. time to go smith. is the cricket board too soft to sack him. us poms dont do things like this :crazy :smiley:

 

[Geo]

Yeah sure it the 1st time its ever happened

Where did they get the idea from ?????

Someone has to go , either Lehmann or Smith

Disgusting ….rather get out for 158 than cheat !
I honestly can't believe a player of Smith's calibre was in on this ...
Sack him !

Don't you mean 58 , saying England got 158 is like giving them a nose job , boob job , tummy tuck , bum lift and applying a gastro band all at the same time :roll

Yeah I know , I didn't think you'd notice
:laughing:
**The Poms may suck but we don't cheat** , but I could happily supply any grade of sandpaper to them if that's what it takes :roll

Anderson and Broad 2010 incident
In January 2010, England bowlers Stuart Broad and James Anderson were accused of ball tampering by rubbing the ball on the ground with their spikes in the third Test Match against South Africa. **Broad maintained that was just being lazy,** because it was 40 degrees Celsius in Cape Town that day. Andrew Flower said in his defence that **"the scoreline suggested that there was obviously no ball tampering.**" Nasser Hussain who had captained Anderson said: "Stuart Broad and James Anderson were wrong to behave in the manner they did and I've no doubt that if a player from another country did the same we'd have said they were cheating."

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: the scoreline…

 

[Geo]

Bancroft 5 years

Are you serious…fined match fee miss 1 test at most for Bancroft...

Just like Faff in Hobart 2016..

Man the faux outrage over this is hilarious..

Cummins was done the other for rolling his spikes on the ball … That's nothing new .
But having a roll of sandpaper in your pocket ....DISGRACEFULL /NO EXCUSES

Keep digging old man :roll

No No England suck and cheat at the same time…lololo

Yeah a bit overboard , but someone from the top end needs to go Geo

I can deal with sledging the most important thing with sport is the mental aspect and being stronger mentally but ball tampering is as bad as PED's

At least Faf had the courage to do it himself and not hide behind the most inexperienced player in his team.

 

[hobbo]

No No England suck and cheat at the same time…lololo

I'm embarrassed to call myself a temporary Australian :laughing:

I bet the Chappell boys are proud though !

 

[halifax_tiger]

australian cricket R.I.P. 2018 :smiley: only joking boys but loving it over in gods world england :laughing: seriously tho surely smith has to go. and that knob warner should be gone :blush:

 

[seadoggy]

Embarrassing and pathetic behaviour from an Australian captain and a so called 'leadership group'. They not only decide to cheat in front of thirty tv cameras and thousands of viewers, but give the job to the one of the more junior members of the team to carry out the stupidity. Cameron Bancroft is under the microscope every time he goes out to bat, his position is probably the most insecure in the team, so he is obviously seen as the bloke who won't be game to say no to doing it. Get rid of them, I have been over this lot for years now. Big mouths that can give it out but can't take it.
