I couldn't care less if they ARE knobs. I just want them to do well at Cricket, or Football. This is one reason why I've never sought an autograph in my life. As long as you win the pill or can hit the ball, get on with it and I'll cheer you on. They aren't coming to my house for tea, they are representing their country/team. If I follow that team then I want them to well.....even if it was *shudder* Brad Hodge.

regards,

I'm staggered this even comes up. It isn't club cricket, it's national cricket. Australian person should equal Australian supporter.

Does the same rule apply for mundine?
He is an aussie but i hope he gets the crap beaten out of him everytime he steps in the ring.
Just because you represent Australia it doesnt mean we have to like them

Mundine essentially is representing himself though, except for when he's representing his country in Olympics/Commonwealth Games type competitions.

The Australian cricket are basically representing the country, although I won't enter the debate about Australians who support another country in cricket.

Good to see Clarke get his first game as skipper of the country in his own right out the way with a win and a century, awesome start for him.

Let him grab a user name and post for himself then. Unless he asked you to post that?
