Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

Put it this way, they aren't for a family friendly forum and none of them end with Warner being a nice bloke. Some friends of mine also went to the same school as well.

With the David Warner situation, I was going to give him a full blast on my FaceBook status but was urged to reword it. People attempt to get a card signed and uses the excuse 'Letting my thumb heal' although he wasn't having any issues batting and fielding.
Wow, I even heard him talking to someone who asked how his thumb was and he said, "Yeah it's fine, will always be a bit of pain there though." What a craphouse excuse.
I'm so glad you pulled up that thread Pratters. God Warner is my type of guy.

Sorry but **** South Africa

They are serial offenders when it comes to ball tampering and their captain is running with the nonsense line of shining being worse than scuffing in attempt to downplay his own indiscretions
I say bringing an artificial object on the field is considerably worse than a mint of sweet, as you are allowed to use saliva anyhow; and to be honest I agree with Gillespie that it is all a bunch of nonsense and Du Plessis was just wasting his time.

The English team waiting until the days after this scandal to release it is the part that seems pretty unbelievable.
Probably just putting the boot in.

Reckon if the story is true the reaction at the time would have been 'why didn't we think of that?'

On a slightly strange aside, Warner & KW were reportedly good mates off the field for the Sunrisers over the last couple of years.

Really just proves what a top bloke KW is to tolerate such a ***** hanging around him.
