Race Row... Any Ideas?

Postby Media Park » Wed Feb 02, 2011 4:37 pm

On Twitter today, it's Brett Geeves versus David Warner...

After Geeves accused Warner of a "lack of humility" after his sightseeing effort after THAT six, Warner responded saying it was lucky a Warner teammate didn't want to follow up a "racial slur" that Geeves made on the field...

Anyone able to shed some light?

I was just wondering if anyone had read an article, or had a link to a story about it, because I hadn't heard about it until this morning!

Ok I'm guessing and all that, but I'll bet it had something to do with Usman Khawaja.

Edit: Was he playing? :lol:

Usman, yes, DNB thru injury

Geeves, no, so I assume the incident was in a prior encounter.

Just on the "sightseeing" from Warner, nothing wrong with that, Geeves is just a sore loser.
