Mmm, those naughty Aussies
What on earth were they thinking? The 'leadership group' decided to give the rookie in the team some tape to rough the ball up with. Smith should sacked as captain and banned from international cricket for at least 6 months. Prat

Main item on BBC news tonight.
Not Proper Chaps.
A lot of heads need to roll.

What amazes me so far is how Lehmann appears to be Teflon - given it was he who gave the signal for Bancroft to hide the evidence he clearly knew.
While the ICC punishment was derisory (they're extremely weak generally when it comes to discipline), I suspect Cricket Australia won't be particularly forgiving.
As I said over on FB, schadenfreude isn't a decent trait normally, but when it's Smith and Warner being taken down I can make an exception. With all the crap going on in my life currently (flooding the downstairs neighbour's bedroom on Friday night the latest in a long line of mishaps) it perked me up no end!

In the light of Malcolm Turnball's comments and those of other past great players Cricket Australia will be under a lot of pressure to impose meaningful punishment on top of the pusillanimous response from the ICC.

The Telegraph reports as an "exclusive" that Lehmann will fall on his boomerang.
Hopefully it's sticking up at the time.
The lovely David Warner has been identified as "the issue". He's likely to be banished from the Australia side for good.
My heart bleeds for the chap. Really it does. I'm only giggling about something else I saw that was really funny.
