I see from your post you also hate Cummins
Anyone you don't?
How you going in the " moral ashes " up 2-0 ?

I was taking it the other way Steve. I was thinking a Jedi would be one with the environment and that it was an endearing name said like a boxing announcer, slower with a deep voice accentuating the first letter of each word, more like this “CAPtain CLimate CHange and UNicorn, the GReat PATRICK CUMMINGS!!!”
Are you saying @Jedi_Tiger is having a dig a Patty?

captain climate change is a great bowler

I just can't support a team led by a proven cheat in Smith, no amount of debate can change the fact he was guilty of cheating. Take him out of the team then different story

hmm from my post I do t hate starc or Travis Head or Carey, all very good players and having a good series

just the cheat in Smith really

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Yeah why wouldn’t you pick a good team?
Pathetic.

well i will back the poms at $3.50 to win in Adelaide.
talking through my kick go the poms $3.50 looks good odds to hopefully turn the tables.
End of the day in support Australia in everything else, come the soccer world cup and rugby wordl cup very much supporting our national team.

when it comes to cricket, from underarm bowling to steve smith, pathetic no thanks

Lol ok haha so an echo chamber then
up the poms

 

[Pascoes_barber]

only follow the poms in cricket, born here anyway, mum was a pom
just can't stand cheats like smith still allowed to play
the rest of the team good on them far too good

Oh dear, more clueless than I realised.

England have a long history of ball tampering - many players have openly admitted such post their playing career. Trescothick, Panesar, and Vaughan (the latter also accusing more recent players (Broad/Anderson) of this.)

The only difference with the Aussies is Cricket Australia imposing the harshest penalties ever seen on Warner/Bancroft/Smith.

did under arm bowling not happen either along with sandpaper ?

 

[Pascoes_barber]

Both happened and both events were terrible cricket.

One was legal, the other led to lengthy board-imposed bans.

(Unlike England's ball tampering through the 80s/90s/00s/10s.)

it will rain in Sydney so likely a draw there
maybe 4-0

Punishment was way over the top IMO.
The Aussies population loves to virtue signal.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

That was legal.

and a good thing ?

We won with out cheating (as you put it), what’s your problem with that?
Did NZ have amoral victory?
