Regardless of length of suspensions , I don’t agree that they should be able to play Grade cricket while they are suspended, even though it would be great for grade cricket.

No sorry am paywalled after a freebie.
I think that the ACB had to come down harder than other countries have & they have. Well done to them.
Yep I don’t by the *smile* weak precedents set by other countries, we were the best cricketing nation by far and I’d say a lot of that’s been because of setting high standards and making tough decisions.Tigers of Old said:
A lot of issues in not just sport but so many things around the world would have been knocked on the head earlier if the people in charge had have had the balls to make the hard decisions. Australia needs to leed not follow.

Well they've done that, the penalties were strong. I think the onus is now with the ICC to follow Australia's lead and set new penalty standards befitting the offence.
I'm hearing they will or seeking lawyers..?
Going to play the " restraint of trade card I guess".
Well with their IPL teams dumping them costing them millions/ sponsors ( Warners case) you had a feeling they would go down that path.
Sutherland not calling them out for what they did or not saying the word when pushed there had to be a reason being as I mentioned earlier. ( post )

Warner instigated it. However the interesting thing is it was sandpaper so Smith and Bancroft lied in their press conference which makes the sentence all the more reasonable.
I think also the fact that it was sandpaper raises questions as to whether Warner had done it before using his bandages as a cover as has been mooted.

Anyone seen the footage of the team walking through the airport?
Gee there's a journo with an English accent there who's got balls I'll give him that.
Asking Lehmann and Warner if they "cheated during the Ashes too" among other things.
