If I was the victim I would go after defamation as well.....

Obviously an umpire and didn't agree with his decision making?

Not sure how facebook posts can get a cricketer banned, do the powers that be think they are the AFL!!!

This is pathetic....

Cricketer got done for 5 years yet there are blokes on there calling people c***s, retards etc... It's a disgrace.

I think its great that the association have stood up against such comments no matter how they were made.

You can't go and call people such things if it isn't true.

I think the cricketing ban is the least of the players problems. I would be worried about the lawsuit that should follow.

There was an incident on the field which resulted in the game getting called off. Only one bloke from my team got suspended for 2 weeks and no one from the opposition got sanctioned. The bloke that got 2 weeks proceeded to shoot his mouth off on the para districts Facebook page venting his anger and disgust in only one player getting suspended.

Sticks and stones... People get called names every day.

Can't pick and choose what you take offence to? Blokes are getting called names every day on the page and 1 bloke had paid the price. Double standards at its best.

People don't get called what you said every day. That can't be accepted and surely the person whom the comments were said about has the right to not have his/her character questioned in that manner.

Bit different to calling someone a wanker or something similar.

I used to get called a pedo every day. Didn't affect me the slightest.

Well good for you

If you said that to my face I probably would be the same, wouldn't affect me in the slightest.

Write it in print media or on the internet however, different story and would pursue every legal avenue available to me.


When will some people grow a brain?

F##king Facebook when will you idiots work it out.....

People are so stupid we have currently advertised for positions at work the first thing my work do once the applications are in is go through facebook and look at there profiles and filter through them. If you want ya sh!t out there post what you want! If your business is your business leave your day to day business to your self! Cause we couldn't give a f@#k anyway......


I don't think the PDCA should've suspended him for 5 years but on the other hand I think serves you right for being so stupid!

I agree heater.

Lots of people don't like being held responsible for their actions.

Was wondering how long until this story found its way here....
