I was. It was your comment on the other comments that bought it on. I don't think they were out of line. I know I'm no cricket guru but I don't recall any other time aussies were caught ball tampering? I think aussie supporters have the right to be angry. It's not just the cricketers personal reputation that gets damaged by this. Our reputation as supporters is now damaged. Look at what wj has been getting from his pommy mate. Every time one of us talks to someone from an opposing team that will be the first thing bought up. I would rather cop crap about not being as good as them but being called a country of cheats now has me pissed off.
