Bairstow headbutt

[Twisted]

They were drinking together apparently. They were probably just fooling around and 'a witness' has said it was a headbutt.

played together at yorkshire and are matey off the field

The press didn’t vilify Warner in Oz mind. They attributed a lot of the blame on Root for “provoking” him and agreeing that “drink makes everyone daft”.

It's the shittest story I've ever seen - something happened, nobody knowswhat happened, nothing was reported, nobody complained

And the British press haven’t vilified Bairstow yet have they?

Are you really expecting balanced coverage in the middle of the ashes?

Don’t be daft, but the Oz press will no doubt vilify JB, as they should have done DW. My point, there.

The British press will have a go at our players as well, which doesn’t show the hypocrisy of the situation.

Mind, this was “reported” by a “witness” so it’s probably just some bloke after his 5 minutes.

Wonder if there's a chapter in his book he's released about the incident. Seemed to spend more time promoting that than he did in the nets before this tour

Nothing story

 

[dangermows]

Oh well the fake outrage brigade will be out in force on here. They literally have Stokes down as a murderer

Stkes

Was just "a Yorkshire hello" when they met as mates in a bar apparently.

Bancroft has never played for Yorkshire. One of the few convicts who hasn't I know.

‘Jonny is a rugby man and part of their culture is to bump heads if someone buys them a drink. Very odd I know but nothing malicious at all. They carried on drinking with each other.’

Nothing to see here. Just Aussies rags smelling blood. Some cricketers were sledging him on the field - only reason it came out is because of stump mikes.

Bancroft never complained, they carried on drinking ffs.

 

[smoker]

Even better....

Brilliant interview with Bancroft about the incident after the match. Fair play to him defused the situation and also took the mickey out of Bairstow.

 

[gowlcra]

Bairstow must be daft getting caught up in that after the Stokes shitshow. Probably ruined it for a lot of the lads...
