Sponsors withdrawing their funding is just the result of the psychotic marketing people thinking,

There was one rotten apple in that squad and I reckon he's been identified.

Correct Lods. Crime, punishment and time. I think that this has been a big wake up call for CA and all players. Smith will be forgiven (if he isn't already after the press conference). Haven't seen Bancroft's conference, but I believe he is very contrite as well. I haven't yet seen Warner's press conference either...
Without hijacking the thread, imagine if EFC had put their hands up properly...

Bancroft was on the verge - I actually felt sorry for the young man but I'm a softy. I thought he spoke well.

That really is a stupid comment!

They can sense blood in the water, their self-righteousness is gobsmacking!
This lot are being keelhauled, the media don't treat murders with this sort of contempt.

I'd be crying too if I lost a 2.4 million dollar IPL contract and had a to get a real job for 12 months..thought Smith had some genuine remorse but his record is smeared for life.
Bancroft..less impressed with his confession, no great loss to Aus cricket if he doesnt play test cricket again, one of the dumbest players I have seen..
Warner.....I guess he is getting some legal/PR advice and will give a more broad confession where he admits to minimal guilt and tries to save his 20/20 tournament career.
No real sympathy for any of them...they had it all and didnt appreciate the opportunities they have been given, others who appreciate it more deserve their place in the national team.....
