They’re awesome.

And how good is playing pro sport and getting two meal breaks a day to inhale them?

Pants are very over rated. Personally believe it’s a bloke’s right to walk around on the bollock in the comfort of his own home if he so chooses

Mate, you lose it over the 'paper but should gain it over the 'wich. We have standards here.

How are we on page 3 and this hasn't been posted?
This is definitely the reason he hasn't been considered since Langer became coach. Theories about the selectors actually having a good reason for it like #mcgsoflat are farfetched as far as I'm concerned; they're not that smart.

If true, Langer’s inability to look beyond this stuff will hurt Aus cricket.

It's all about standards. Test cricketers are role models and certain standards of sportsmanship and off-field behaviour are a given. However, their are other responsibilities such as setting examples and taking food on the the playing arena is not one of them.

The coach is responsible for ensuring standards are met and it seems some are condemning Langer for doing his job. He may have flaws regarding team selection and team strategies, and warrants criticism for such flaws. On the other hand, it is nit-picking to target him for enforcing basic good standards.
