Re: Cheats
I think it's a bit harsh, after all its only what they have been doing for as many years as I can remember .... pushing the limits of what they can get away with.
With this sort of ban just for a bit of cheating I'm wondering what sort of bans Cookie, Root and the rest of the England team will get for bringing the game into disrepute by being bl**dy useless

Re: Cheats
I forgive them but not a big fan of the crying on camera. Makes Smith look like a girl or Jonathon Trott. Hope nobody is going to play the mental health card as that would push my forgiveness.
I've been involved with cricket with the same club for over 40 years and have seen things on and off field that make this episode seem pretty tame. They did the wrong thing and should be punished but the that's enough.
Am looking forward to Davy Warner getting off the plane. Wonder what he will say? I'd be surprised if the tip rat cried

You should be proud that someone thinks you are the best at your sport.
If you resort to cheating to try & win a game then you are clearly not the best.
All the people involved which I personally think more than the 3 named are involved you should be banned for life for representing your country.
These are professional cricketers so their livelihood is playing cricket.
I would not go as far as banning them from the game completely but never let them bring their country into shame again.

Re: Cheats
Yes.I agree with the waterworks.We don't need to see that.IMO the twelve month Ban,loss of sponsorship and stripping of leadership roles and banning from any future leadership is acceptable.marjamlew wrote: ↑March 29, 2018, 4:55 pmI forgive them but not a big fan of the crying on camera.

Re: Cheats
Ball tampering/ performance Enhancing drugs Cricket/Football/Athletics etc etc same same
There is ONLY ONE punishment that is fair to all the thousands of others who do not cheat to gain an advantage and that is a LIFE BAN with no remission. The t*sser that cheated at Baseball a couple of years back and only got a a year or two ban and then started playing again
Had yer chance guys ....... Blew it ........ TA RA S*d Off .......and BTW the ban will include being paid for writing or any TV film involvement as well. Get out of the sport and don't ever come back

http://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/43584435Australian ball-tampering: Darren Lehmann to quit as Australia coach
I can understand why..Darren Lehmann is to quit as head coach of Australia at the end of the current Test series against South Africa.
It is wrong to have created an atmosphere where a young player who is put under unfair pressure by a colleague can't go to the man in charge for help & advise & wrong that a captain feels so much pressure to win that anything sounds a good idea..

Re: Cheats
If there is a positive for cricket it is that the ACB did hand down sever penalties to the players, not that I agree. Whereas other ICC countries have encouraged and promoted the guilty parties.
SA even promoted their 2 time tamperer to capt.
England could not wait to get their all rounder thug off England soil and back in the team via the NZ back door.
There are others on the list of course.
I doubt other ICC countries will follow the lead set by the ACB.
Our moral compass stand tall.

Re: Cheats
At the end of the day they cheated, as Captain he is responsible, the idea of winning at all costs is a bad message to send to the young, it was always how you played the game, not winning by cheating, sobbing like a spoilt brat on TV dosen't cut it, as captain he should have said NO as other great Australian captains would have, make an example of the cheats, who would want to win by cheating???

Re: Cheats
The ultimate irony is that the Commonwealth Bank have stopped their sponsorship of Smith. The same bank that is currently the centre of investigation at a royal commission into banking and finance practises such as selling insurance policies to punters who, because of the terms and conditions of the policy, would never be able to make a legitimate claim. I'd suggest the winner here is Smith.

Re: Cheats
Never seen So many Aussies crying Crocodile Tears. When asked if he knew who where the idea came from to Tamper with the ball David Warner wouldn't answer and simply walked out of his press conference ignoring further Questions.

Re: Cheats
The players have the right to appeal the severity of the sanctions imposed on them. They have until next Thursday (I think) to decide whether or not they will appeal. Makes sense to say nothing until that decision has been made.
Should they decide not to appeal they will be unemployed for some time. To generate an income they all have a story to sell and there are enough Murdoch tabloid rags and no morals TV shows like 60 Minutes in Oz who would be prepared to part with big money for an exclusive story.
So if you think about it, the lack of information at the pressers was a no brainer. Who would give away for nothing what could earn them a million fun tickets?

Re: Cheats
On a rather more pleasant note it is lunch in South Africa.
The hosts have accumulated slowly after Markram was out yesterday for 152.
Bavuma is the man in charge of getting them to a large total as he is not out for 61, but running out of partners.
They have reached 400 for 7 but at a bit of a snails pace..
