[Voice of fair play]

Been named international cricketer of the year,deserves it IMO.

Has took quite a bit of stick in the past,credit to him for coming back from that,was the main difference between the sides in the last Ashes series

Never agreed with that. Winner can be good guys too. Think nadal and federer in tennis, pele or charlton, strauss, bell, cooke. The idea that ots ok to be a winner and a twat is just a big lie to excuse succesful sportsmens bad behaviour.

i agree with greavsie on this though. warner is so arrogant and deserves a good kicking. i still feel if you take on johnson and whack him around the old mitchell is still there

Exactly mate really good post that IMO.

I hate in football when players get subbed and go in the huff like a big kid,only for pundits to come out with shit,like it shows he has passion,like you say excusing bad behaviour

Agreed, I'd never get tired of smacking Warner in the face with a cricket bat. Johnson may have an aggressive manner (when he's bowling well) but even at his worst last winter he always seemed to be using that aggression in the context of the game, bowling fast and acting mean.

Fair play to Mitch though, this time last year I couldn't wait to hear the Barmy Army get going on him again and watch him crumble, how wrong I was.

Has he not been working with dennis Lillee and this seems to have paid dividends
