    Oh great. A bunch of knob ends in a cricket thread calling the wife of a cricketer a slut and degrading her.

    Stay classy San Diego....

    I'm pretty sure she did all the degrading she could manage -- to herself -- well before this thread started.

    If calling a spade a spade earns a "knob end" then so be it.

    It isn't calling a spade a spade. It is being a fuckwit.

    That's the best part of all of this for me.

    Mrs Warner's history was a non story in SA, the team might have known about it, but if more five other people in the country knew I'd be surprised.

    Once Davey decided to use that as his defence the media had free reign to publicise her history. So well done to the little shit gibbon for defending her honour by publicizing it in a country she currently finds herself in.

    And don't take my previous comment to mean I condone people on the street making her visit anything but pleasant, but I'll bet that the TV cameras will focus a bit on her in the upcoming test.

    We won. All the bitching is just bitching.

    Entirely appropriate for Intentional Women's Day.

    Well you all be back to normal tomorrow, when your ovaries stop hurting?

    look, as far as i am concerned, what happens on the board stays on the board. and i am going to do, and type anything i can to point out your blatant aussie hypocrisy, and generally make you feel uncomfortable. to do my best posting when I'm being abusive. but i think that bringing up someone's anatomy is crossing the line, and i should stand up to that. especially lady parts, those most of all. but it should be left on the board, and not taken public. or something

    you fucking sook

    You're just posting good aggressive board.

    Play your board aggressive.

    But just don't cross the line.

    Two thoughts.
    Sledging about family members is shitty and lacking any kind of wit. They aren't there to defend themselves, or hand out a sharp knee to the balls. I mean fuck, if you have a butt ugly boofhead like Warner, and the best you can do is talk shit about his wife, you'd have to be pretty thick yourself.
    Warner was foolish to make it about defending her 'honour'. This is not the 50s. Who fucking cares if she had fun as a single. It's not like cricketers walk around wearing chastity belts before they get married (or after they get married...) so now all he's done is made her past a THING.

    Don’t think anyone is defending de Kock we just don’t have any sympathy for Davey.
    Sledging used to be clever, witty. There’s plenty of legendary moments over the years of great sledges and even greater come backs.
    But what Oz is doing is the complete opposite of that. It’s classless and borders on bullying.
    It’s basically just not very funny, certainly not clever.
    All Davy will end up with is a legacy of being remembered as that great attacking batsmen who was a bit of a cock.

    @virgil Sorry Virg but that's just plain wrong.

    I don't know what golden age of Noel Coward and Bernard Shaw rejoinders you're buying into but it's a myth.

    the difference today is things like stump mikes pick up comments and, more importantly, media are prepared (keen) to report incidents whereas previously anything unsavoury was ignored.

    The 1970's Aussies weren't called the ugly Australians simply for the taches.

    My ex father-in-law played first class cricket (briefly) in England before the war and for the Army during it so played against the Comptons etc and it doesn't sound a lot different to today TBH.

    It's easy to think it was all clever, witty one liners but that's only because they are more memorable than "you fat fluffybunny"

    Re, the line

    I am going to try and make a point that is completely beyond my language skills.

    Warner is full of shit and he knows it.

    So, let's assume De Kock said "hey mate your wife is a slag". Nobody has actually quoted what was said, but the rumours/conjecture suggests it it's something close.

    How should you react when someone calls your wife a slag? Well that depends...

    Is he attacking the person I am married to or my wife? And yes there is a difference.

    A mate that calls your wife a slag is insulting her. When you lash out you are protecting her honour (that might be wrong or right in its own right).

    When a guy you barely know says you are married to a slag, he is insulting you. When you explode you are defending your own honour.

    So which one happened here? I doubt De Kock knows or cares to know Candice Warner. He, allegedly, said something that touched a nerve with the little shit gibbon. I am sure Warner thinks he was being chivalrous, I think he was being a dick who can dish it out, but doesn't like to get it back. Also think deep down he and his team mates know that he was protecting his own little shit gibbon ego, not the honour of his partner.

    Oh and to add. We play hard, but fare, keep it on the pitch, let's get a beer culture is bullshit.

    I honestly think the Proteas (generally) think the Aussies are fluffybunnies. Its not hatred, just, well we have better things to do with our time.

    You do you mate.

    Funny how in recent years with rugby things have gone a similar way. the ABs and Boks get on really well but have no time for the Wobs. I wonder if they tried to tap into that same type of 'mongrel' the cricket team favours but it didn't work

    With Cheika, I think it's a safe assumption

    Or how long you can profess to keep it on the pitch and have a beer afterwards when your onfield approach is feral. There is only so much you can let go. Always thought the contact nature of league and rugby made it easier to let go. Aside from when it's clear someone is trying to injure you... just ask Richie.

    Thought this was an interesting take by Knox in the SMH:

    Malcolm Knox  /  Mar 8, 2018  /  Cricket

    What did Warner say? More importantly, why do we care?

    What did Warner say? More importantly, why do we care?

    The ongoing drama between David Warner and Quinton De Kock has detracted from what was a fascinating opening Test.

    Australian cricket apparently live streamed the first test for free, and offers the last three for NZD$25. Really interseting - first time I've seen rights being offered outside the home country for something like this.
