With all sponsorship deals off the table one needs to get creative.

Has Bunnings got a Sandpaper special coming up?

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

But what did he say into the walky talky? Quick, tell him to chuck the sandpaper down his strides he's been rumbled. Begs the question, what poor bastard had to get it out og his undies?

Wonder if he's got one smooth shiny nut and one roughed up one.

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

Watch the press conference. He tells you.

As I said, don't let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

What makes you believe him? Does he have a recording?

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

Easy. The more people you add, the more chance there is for someone to say no. Smith said "I don't want to know". Boof would have said "No"

Ask your grubby mate Michael Vaughan.

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

Not harsh enough - Australia should be banned from all international cricket for 12 months, at least.

Pour encourager les autres...

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

Vaughan has nothing to do with this though does he? You're trying to deflect again

If he did say 'I don't want to know', it's as good as saying 'yes feel free lads, fill your boots'. You lot seem to be painting Smithy as an innocent bystander caught up against his will. That's utter bollocks, they're trying to appear tough on cheats while simultaneously rolling over for Smith because of his undeniable talent.

For the record I think it's all a bit harsh, but to saddle Warner and set Smith up for a triumphant return is just shocking.

Win at all costs, even CA's integrity it seems

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

And on that precedence New Zealand would have no other team to play.

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

You obviously don't follow Vaughan on Twit.

You actually don't follow cricket.

And you see, this is the long term game you Englishmen aren't getting. Australia will return, and Steve Smith will return to a hero's welcome, probably in time for the Ashes, under a new coach, with a new mentality.

Keep twitting if you like though. Up to you.

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

deflecton AND poor English :blink:

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

I have said plenty about the Australian soap opera. What more would you like to know?

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

Tweeting is for fools such as yourself. Twatting would be more suitable in your case. Does someone have to agree with you to be a cricket fan then?

You are right though, he will return to a heroes welcome, and as I said it will be before the year is up. It will show you lot up for the fickle fools that you are. This whole process has become a farce within a week, true Aussie style

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

Teach me oh short one

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

So here we are again. I think I said it before. You have no interest in cricket. Just an excuse to insult Australians. Very bitter and racist.

Fickle is one thing. That would be England supporters at a football match, turning up one week, rioting when one loses as per usual, turning up the next week, repeat repeat repeat.

The thing is, Australians are very disappointed, and been harsh in opinion and punishment, but given the right repair, we are a forgiving lot. Nothing wrong with that.

It could teach you a thing or 2 about your deep bitterness.

Re: The Cricket Thread
 

There's no bitterness in me old chap, I just enjoy pointing it out when you talk rubbish. I have trouble keeping up. What you just described isn't forgivemess, it's an ill thought knee jerk reaction followed rapidly by 'oh hang on, he's our best player' so they've put another spin on it. Fickle.

What you described about England football fans, is very un-fickle if they're doing the same thing every week don't you think.

Oh and I'm not racist, I'm youist ;)
