That’ll be Graeme Hick then.

You forgot Beer!

No I didn't......I've tasted your beer .

 

[Spurs_Bear]

I'm still perplexed as to why Sutherland wouldn't officially say it was cheating and gave a politicians answer when asked about 4 times. I'm guessing the only thing could be legal reasons.

I'd take a Cooper's Pale Ale but they can keep their XXXX Gold...

My hometowns finest. Nothing beats a Coopers here In Aus.

 

[aussiespursguy]

I'm going to try to get some inside info. Old mate of mine is great mates with an ex Aussie player and coach. Gotta find his number though!

I’m almost exclusively a Guinness drinker these days so not familiar with many ales. Although I do quite like Blue Moon which is a Pale Ale I believe? Is it anything like that?

Not really mate just a slightly better tasting lager in my view...they sell it in some London establishments (and not Walkabout!)

12 month bans for Smith and Warner apparently.

Thats whats just been reported here. Unconfirmed of course. From Jim Maxwell.

 

[Ossie'sAardvark]

12 months about right.Thats much better than i was hearing. Much more appropriate in my eyes.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Back in time for the Ashes. I'm shocked.

If true of course

Not for that **** Warner it isn't.

I've also seen this on The Telegraph's site

Cricinfo's Daniel Brettig says David Warner and Steve Smith have also been banned from captaining Australia for two years

Now if that's true it's a total disgrace. Neither should be anywhere near captaining the Aussies ever again IMO. If CA don't get this right they are going to do more damage than good

I would advise everyone at each Ashes Test over here to wear a Sonny Bill Williams face cutout. Even the England players.

 

[tototoner]

Don’t like Aussie cricketers in general, but also not enjoying the schadenfraude from the English.

On a side note the 12 month bans will be over by the time the next Ashes series comes around in 2019

You'll have to enlighten me on the significance of the SBW face cut-outs. Maybe I'm having a 'senior moment', even though I'm only 54. Before you ask, I do know who SBW is.

I agree with the captaining. Surely they'll never do that again.

From what I can gather, it seems SBW was rooting Warners wife.
