Should Smith, Warner, Bancroft bans be lifted asap?

[Bazal]

Except it does merkin.

That's like saying people aren't passionate about rugby league.

We can't all be soulless lovers of foreign teams like you.

That's why people like you are a large part of the problem.

Just think of all the erections you'll get over Kohli's team.

Geez, Sprunk. That's quite a little tantrum you've thrown. Unbecoming, really.

I really think you should seek some help, Splonk. You seem to have an unhealthy case of delusion, Sproak. Not to mention a little bit of paranoia. Not too many friends of the Indian team here, Splack.

Lol merkin, you should be celebrating cheating Faf's flogging of the Australian cricket team.

That's right other cricketers can cheat and get way with it.

Australians cheat and you have a mental breakdown.

F***ing idiot.

 

[Eelectrica]

This Australian ODI team has been a basket case for the last 3 years. We're more than 2 players away.

I can only see one poor, sorry fool having a breakdown around here, Spike.

 

[Fangs]

wtf with this culture review.

I remember family in the 90s saying they hated the Australian cricket team because of their arrogance and they celebrated when they lost.

A bit like some on here.

Do we really want old man Spock in here with his finger on the button?

 

[Fangs]

Grew up with that.

Who cares what the layman thinks? We shouldn't f**k with the bans, they dunderheads desreved it.

 

[simmo1]

10/10 meltdown.

Australia never got thrashed in a game of cricket before the sandpaper incident.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Ironic that a bloke calling himself Spock would get so emotional.

 

[Pete Cash]

It was a knee jerk reaction. The ICC and players have never seen ball tampering as that big a deal and it blew up in everyones dumb face when it turned out the Australian public really do care about it. However, i think what done is done.

I voted yes because I believe part of the ban should be lifted and they should be able to play domestic cricket. They have been effectively double banned because they aren't getting any first class cricket before the next ashes series and world cup. Test cricket well it would come across as hilariously desperate.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Lol i tend to recall the emotional ones were those who called for heads to roll in the first place.

Saffers obviously don't mind if their captain is a cheat.

But yeah enjoy kohli's team give the aussies an absolute bath because hysteria.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

True cricket fans will ride out the bad times. They might curse a few players and CA but it's all in jest. They realise what the bans are for - because these guys basically thumbed their nose at the history of Australian cricket and showed a horrible lack of leadership

You can tell the Johnny come latelys because they get all emotional and cry because we might lose a game or two. They compare incidents by other teams because they lack the cricketing nous to realise that just because some countries think cheating is ok we should too.

Mate, South Africa are a bunch of neville nobodies when it comes to Cricket, they're riding a wave at the moment because they've finally got a good crop of players but in the grand scheme they've never been a powerhouse cricketing nation, that's not the same for us.

You seem so caught up in winning or losing that you're willing to throw all standards out of the window, you cannot cheat to win, I don't care who you are and if you want to say "well they do it, so we can too", that says more about you than it does anything else.

 

[Mr Angry]

It is OK to be upset others got of lightly, new precedence set by us, imagine the meltdown if some other bloke gets a slap on the wrist for an attempt to cheat.

Don't cheat just cause other do.

I recall the ICC changed something, lets see if anyone is still game enough to try, now that you know no more lettuce leaf slaps.

Pasting over the bigger problem, Smith and Warner could just be injured, and we cannot score runs,

Makes me feel for blokes like Lehmann..........

Cannot agree.

They play good cricket, the bastards.

 

[blaza88z]

Cannot agree.

Yes they have a great side, currently.

It wasn't always the way though and they use to be one of the dodgiest sides going around when it came to match fixing and the like. They are still yet to win a World Cup, I predict they'll right in the mix next world cup though, possibly the favorites.

 

[Timbo]

Gosh, if only we'd had our best batsmen not suspended there.

Or there.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Gosh, if only we'd had our best batsmen not suspended there.

Lol, S Marsh duck in both

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Yes the bans should be lifted asap so i get a better price about the opposition team and continue to make money betting against Hopelessstralia

Gamble Responsibly > Warner/Smith

 

[Mr Angry]

You made me lol

Clearly Australia are the dominant cricket nation overall, but others have had periods of dominance...

But seriously "finally got a good crop of players"... without delving too far, have you heard of Barry Richards, Graeme Pollock, Peter Pollock, Clive Rice - but for their (rightful) ban SA would have been the Windies main competition - more recently the likes of Donald, S Pollock, Kallis, Ntini, Smith, de Villiers etc went ok

I dislike the bastards, but they consistently produce wonderful cricketers
