Just because they are Australian - doesn't mean I should support their poor professionalism in Sport.

It's like supporting a 'mate' to drink drive.
Guilty by association, especially if you're in the car too.

Etc, etc.

I totally supported the Hughes era, the Border era (even though they were not winners).
I supported the Taylor era, the S.Waugh era (even though they were winners).
But I have not supported the Clarke and Smith eras - win or lose, they're a bunch of complete tossers!

No worse than England who are full of thugs and are known to cheat....No worse than India who doctor pitches and then lie about sledging despite being one of the worst offenders....No worse than South Africa who cried about sledging and then aided and abetted the crowd to launch a disgusting attack on the wife of the Australian Vice Captain....Your outrage is very selective mate....Aussies don't need or want your support!!!

Roll Eyes

Turn it up Squire! Grin

The WHOLE WORLD knows what Australian (males) are like in Sport. Hell, we have 'sports' here that have been built on VIOLENCE and INJURY infliction beyond the need to 'get fit' (which is what Sport is all about).
Australian (male) Sport is much like South American Sport: Foul, Grubby, Cheat, Corrupt and more and if Australian Males ever do 'act' professional - its because they get their wins more like a 'spoil'(ed brat). Hell, its obvious how Australians 'can't win' in Sport when they 'choke' so often (for the Money!). Roll Eyes

So here we have the Australian Cricketers of Clarke/Smith eras - throwing their sledging around to the point of plain verbal abuse ("I'm gonna break you F$%$^@ arm C%$% !" by Clarke the 'Captain' Roll Eyes

).

But along come the Maori/Kiwis of NZ in Rugby Union and the Boer/Bantu of SA in Cricket to not only 'WIN' against Australia consistently ...but show that although they might not be able to 'sledge' as good as Australians who throw a dummy spit to get their way.
Because lets face it. With Clarke/Smith era - apparently winning the 'sledge' dog-act is more important than winning the Test.

Sth Africa. Wins Test. Loses Sledge
Aust. Loses Test. Wins Sledge
Roll Eyes

So Weener Warner throws a tantrum about the 'rules' Roll Eyes

of Sledging.
What an absolute TOSSER! Roll Eyes

Apparently its ok for the Australian Crowd (supported by the Team) to call Hadlee a Wanker Roll Eyes

Poor Symonds (Black) didn't like it when the (black) Indian crowds called him MONKEY.
Another 'dummy spit' on the Sledge agenda.

Seems Australian Cricket's only 'Policy on Winning' is in the 'Sledge Department'. No wonder they are ranked #5.
Maybe Anthony Mundine and Jeff Fenech can teach Smith & Co some more 'professional' approaches too? Huh

Yeah - Women in Australian Sport that is. Thank god for Women in Sport here. It is them that provide our Nation with a true sense of Professionalism and 'winning' on deserved efforts.
