Wasn't Atherton caught doing the same thing? Give me the Aussie will to win instead of a team who gets bowled out for 58 when conditions where ermmm English. Oh no, a bit of swing, let's miss the ball....
His was a "brainfade" apparently. Whereas today's evil conspiracy was premeditated and was akin to Guy Fawkes trying to blow up the Houses of Parliament.
Beheading is the only appropriate punishment quite frankly.
Look at him squirm
didn't quite have the same level of planning that the aussies did, he did it himself, he didn't coerce a junior member to risk his reputation, a fai few differences, and in terms of winning no matter what that you applaud so loudly, well aussie cricket and english cricket have pretty much been on a even keel over the last decade, england doing it without incurring universal distaste from every other team

We beat them at home, they slaughter us away. We go on about the sledging. Broad and Anderson are great at sledging the Sri Lankans or Indians at home, where are they away at Australia? Where's hardman Stokes defending a 16 run last over against the Windies? Australia had a hard couple of years when all their stars retired yet came back absolutely firing. So much more to admire than the pathetic English schoolboy mentality.
You've really got a pretty biased slant on english cricket, been interesting to know what that is really about, we have won in aus more recently then they have in england, we have won a one day series in aus more recently than they have in england, it's been nip and tuck and I would say aus certainly have the better side now, and some fine bowlers. The big plus point for me is we have never had a captain force an 8 test novice to risk his reputation and career to win a test match, but don't let me stop your whatboutism

We've had a better team than them for what, 4 years in the last 30? Nothing wrong in calling out the mentality of getting bowled out for under 60 in conditions that you've been brought up in.
Atherton decide to ball tamper in the heat of the moment, on a whim I suppose. It was completely moronic and he probably should have been punished more severely.
This was premeditated and cowardly. The captain forced the youngest member of the side to do it. Then Smith refused to take responsibility by constantly referring to this weird leadership group that no one knows who's in it even if it exists. There's footage coming out of bancroft from the ashes too so it's not a one off either. He should be sacked as captain and given at least a 3 or 4 test ban.

I like the reaction from the sky Australia presenter...'Just shock here' but he failed to add 'that the wally got caught' probably would have gone on to say he must be a pomme to cheat and make it so obvious.
Like anyone of them care, it is programmed in them to do what it takes to try and win. They are only sorry they got caught, not for bringing the game into disrepute.
