    Watch the first bit where Smith throws Bancroft under the bus

    Smith and Boof should be sacked. 'The boys in the shed are embarrassed'. So much remorse (after being caught).

    In his rambling, though, he did confess to bringing the game into disrepute.

    .....and it is all so fucking hilarious!

    Mate I don’t see it as hilarious at all. They’ve been caught out blatantly cheating, so blatant that they’ve had to fess up. That’s not good for cricket and it’s a real fucking slap in the face for the Aussie supporters. I know, cue much mirth about their plight but the majority are genuine fans of the game and deserve better. I know if this had been England I’d be ropable.

    Hence my more serious post underneath that one.

    The hilarious-ness of it is that it comes after Boof just tried to take the moral high ground and the incessant talk about not crossing lines. That part is funny.

    IMO if the ICC don't throw the book at these fuckwits the game has just written its death notice.

    Yeah reactionary post from me, apologies. It's just that I find this stuff just shiity and don't want to climb into it in a jingoistic way - not pointed at you or any others on here for that matter.

    Anyway, to address your more salient point, yeah the ICC really must make some examples here. Poor bloody Bancroft is likely gone but there needs to be some senior heads on the block here too.

    Looks like Bancroft did essentially the same thing in the Ashes too which cuts across what Smith said earlier.

    @kiwimurph in which he'll defend his right to do whatever it takes to help continue his 17-year tenure as CEO.

    Honestly the place needs a cleanout, but it has to start above the team.

    What strategy will he take?

    Internal investigation
    Player will get support and counselling
    Ongoing review of procedures
    Consult with ICC
    Immediate suspensions
    Condemnation in strongest possible terms
    ??

    A further update.

    The board of Cricket Australia (CA) have called an emergency meeting today, to work through a plan of dealing with the fall-out from the Australian ball-tampering crisis.

    Daughter-Dad, why is my name Rose?

    Father-Because when you were born a rose petal fluttered through the window and landed on you forehead.

    2nd daughter -Dad is that why I’m called Violet?

    Father- Yes dear the same things as happened to your sister, a violet petal carried on a gentle breeze landed on your forehead.

    3rd daughter-mmmmmwahahahagaggggh?

    Father-Shut the fuck up concrete block.

    Wonder who gets the fun task of trawling through hundreds of hours of cricket from past Australian tears looking for signs of this happening previously.
    Don’t for a minute believe this plan just came out of nowhere and hadn’t been tried before.

    Cricket Australia have said their Head of Integrity is being sent over to South Africa to investigate.

    Lots of talk of process.

    Smith should have immediately resigned - you can't take full responsibility and promise never to do it again and hope that deals with it, the board should fire him and Lehmann as well if they won't resign.

    Fuck sake Smith. You're far and away the best batsman of this generation. Why sink to this level?
