It's not just this isolated instance. The culture under his watchful eye in the last 18 months has deteriorated so much so that his job now is untenable imo
So should Robinson at the Roosters have been sacked because of too many drug incidents because of the culture? There has been too many of those.

why are you going all mental rating my comments 'interesting' even though they are not even related to this topic?

are you Darren lehmann and scared of losing your job?

shame on you for throwing a young kid's career in the gutter.
Umm because you did the same to me first!

They can play club cricket.

Smith can't be Aussie captain for 2 years.

Warner can never be in any leadership role.
Smith should never be allowed to captain again.

weren't those ICC punishments, who didn't even ban bancroft just gave him 3 points? They obviously haven't deterred people from doing it. I like this harsh punishment and hope other countries follow suit, it sends a message and the players can appeal the punishment if they chose to

lol, not that I care but you even rated my post questionable/ interesting on a different thread about a totally different topic.

I only returned the favour after your lunacy was getting out of control.

it looks like its not only me on this thread whom you have gone ape shit on. you must be related to Lehman if you are not the fat **** yourself. lol

The Australian Cricket Association released this today:



Hopefully they fight it and some common sense penalties than get applied to the players.

They LIED.

IMO: Smith didn't realise the enormity of what they did.

Hope they appeal & get a higher sentence.

The more likely outcome if they go appeal is they won tbh. The Australian Cricket Associstion has released that strong statement (as posted above) questioning CA’s handling of the investigation and sanctions and it seems to me the ACA would be supportive of an appeal.

Down to the individuals really. I wish them luck if they do. Doesn’t matter if they lied. The penalty is blown out of all proportion.

What a disgrace to treat Steve Smith like that. The guy looks suicidal.

Haven’t seen Bancroft’s presser yet...was out st the time, but man, that was so hard to watch. I’m glad they kept it short for the poor guy. He did not look in the mindframe to even be doing that.

I did see a few clips of cam bsncroft’s And he seemed almost as distraught. Maybe not quite.. Smithy looked like he might break.

This is fucked.

Bancroft not much better. More controlled but visibly upset.

That was hilarious, laughed through the whole thing.

Wish I was there to ask a question.

Question would have been directed to his dad:

“Are you a failure as a father for raising a cheating son?”

This would have broken what was left of Steve.
