We are now branded as cheats... a tag that doesn't fit 400 odd other blokes who played within the spirit of the game.
They have brought the Australian game into disrepute. I couldn't care less about other countries and the penalties they've dished out.
This is Australian cricket culture, not Pakistan or England or anybody else.
Precedents start somewhere and 12 months is about right but I would restrict their playing to be only club cricket.
A nice piece of melodrama you write. Their actions literally have no bearing on the reputation of any Australian cricketer to have played before them.
My point is/was 400 odd other blokes didn't resort to blatant dumbass cheating!
