Paine quits in tears over explicit texts

[smoker]

Convenient timing for them to get Smith back in: a nice easy Ashes series against an England in disarray to cement his position.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

This all seems very odd, CA say no action was taken as it was a consensual act between two adults but police charges are still pending??

It doesn't weaken the team to have him "removed" from the captaincy

 

[hudson88]

More sexting scandals than test centuries

 

[Pepe]

He was no threat at all as a cricketer.

Exonerated after an internal investigation 4 years ago - either there's more to this or it seems a little unnecessary to dig up now.

Either way, bad news for England as he was their weak link.

It's not good news for us but it's still amusing to laugh at them nonetheless.

This will have been happening around the time his wife was giving birth. Clearly a lovely bloke.

The "finish me off" text is mega cringe and needs to be the centre of our sledging efforts against them

 

[Jack Torrance]

Have they dropped him or will he still play

 

[mackembhoy]

This makes zero sense it happened in 2017 and was investigated by CA at the time.

Why the fuck has it been brought back?

Aussies are buzzing at this news.

Dealt with internally at the time, apparently media got hold of the story and were about to publish and Paines decided to walk before being pushed due to the scandal/nature of it.
Not that it'll help much

Australian media getting a bit worried when they seen Stokes was back and decided they had to act to save the Ashes

 

[Comeback_Kenwyne]

Paves the way for Smith to take over and for them to get a half decent keeper... could have at least waited a couple weeks

Cummings apparently.

Clearing the media decks for the full frontal "we take the baggie green captaincy seriously - no transgressions; your captain is a racism enabler".

See if I'm wrong.

What happened has happened to Australian men over the past decade . At one time they the very epitome of masculinity but now they’ve turned into massive pussies turning on the waterworks at every opportunity.

It's Pat Cummings I think. To be honest I'm happy with any kind of turmoil or disruption at this point really.

 

[JL1985]

It's going to be 5-0 with or without him.

She’s been charged with theft, according to this

Yet more on-air blubbing from them, it's becoming a bit of a recurring theme now

Tend to agree. They're going to f***ing smash us.
