No he was a disgrace: work choices!!! In an historical context John Howard will be treated with opprobrium.

Those 2 buffoons are an utter disgrace and embarrassment Grassy end of story!

BH perhaps you can tell me if the Australians in the Indian first innings of the second test had more than 10 appeals?

I will repeat you weigh up the behaviour of the Australian cricket team and the behaviour of Kyrgios and Tomic and in my opinion the Australian cricket team had behaved far more poorly than the two tennis players.

I haven't seen any of the cricketers just give up mid match like the 2 tennis goons!

You didn't answer my question about whether the Australians had more than 10 appeals.

Yeah sure.A bit late mind you.

Our current team?Why not,we've got the Bastards on Toast,almost.

In essence any Australian cricket team in the last 20 odd years including the current one.

One is a team sport, the other is individual based, always more sledging etc in a team sport. These 2 blokes are spoilt arrogant twats, pity the WTA hasnt got the gonads to suspend em for 12 months rather than wet lettuce money fines

Unka2 very amusing. When Serena Williams threatened to ram a ball down a linesperson's throat was fined a mere $82,500 and given a warning that another serious infraction would lead to her being barred from the following US Open. Given her earnings in sport it was a mere slap on the wrist for threatening an official during a match.

For the record the WTA has absolutely no jurisdiction or control over Nick Kyrgios.

She is NO favourite of mine,I can tell you,with all her carry on and One Dimensional game,Power.Effective,I grant her,but boring,especially when she switches the On/Off Dial.

As for the current team,they're acting like Church Mice compared to Kohli's antics.

Didn't Smith get sanctioned earlier this summer for his behaviour?

You cancastigate the Cricket Team all you want mate,but that doesn't change a Darn thing about the Enfant Terrible's of Australian Sport,let alone Tennis.

Plenty of Potential,but they act like Goats too often to get the respect they should be seeking.If they did that for a few years,then they could say They've Silenced their Critics.

But it'll be quite some time before they do that one suspects.

Grassy what I am highlighting is the lack of criticism when members of the Australian cricket team misbehave as they so often do. There are many who wax lyrically how important the Australian cricket team captain's position is and the current incumbent is not behaving appropriately.

I would also add that the cricketers are representing Australia, neither Kyrgios nor Tomic are representing Australia at an ATP tournament.
