I kind of pity the guy who comes up with this stuff and thinks "yeah, this is hilarious"

It’s like a bad #auspol meme.

Correct.

Still better than any Simpsons related cricket meme

I don't buy the argument put forward by some that why would a guy on $1 million risk it all for $50 000

Many wealthy people would do something very simple but shady for a quick buck

If someone came to you and said can you block a ball for $50 000, most people would at least think about it

$50 000 for a minute's work is a good rate, regardless of your wealth

Agreed entirely.

However, since the Ashes have been brought up in the allegations, it will likely be brushed under the rug.

'here' s $100k, block out a maiden in the third over of the day'

Unless you got some absolute trash bowled at you is that even going to look particularly suss?

Steve Smith has been sending a signal to the bookies, when he is going to score a hundred he walks out holding a bat.

If it was brushed under the rug, it wouldn't have come out in the media...
