Agree totally Red!

For an experienced veteran ( and a bloke I'd previously considered a sportsman ) Kohl's exchange with a young first gamer was [censored] weak.

Note. the replays clearly show that Konstas was walking his own line and minding his own business when Kohli bumped into him

    How's Gavaskar suggesting that both of them will be reported!🤣

    Gavaskar has hated the Aussies ever since he was given out, cracked the sheeits and tried to get his team to get on the bus and go home to India straight away!🥸

    It wasn’t good and I’m sure the match referee will deal with the situation accordingly. But what sch!ttz me no end is the relentless talk about it. I’d rather the commentators didn’t mention it every five minutes. The match so far is highly entertaining, that should be enough to keep us viewing. There’s no need for the big song and dance production.

    PS to say India ruin cricket is just silly.

    Agree. There was also barely anything in the Head/Siraj altercation but the commentators made it sound as if they went into an actual fistfight.

    I think the media just wants this series to be as drama fulled as possible.

    And it’s a shame because it doesn’t need any drama at all. Maybe casual fans like the “spice” added by the media but I reckon true fans just wanna enjoy the actual game.

    The thing that annoyed me was Kohli’s reaction, after walking a pitch and a half width across, to get to Konstas.

    Konstas was clearly annoying Kohli, as we saw earlier a few times with his cavalier batting and Kohli’s reactions.

    However, after Kohli bumped him and kept walking, without instantly reacting, which you would do if contact was unexpected, Kohli tried to start something and then later was trying to blame Konstas for the bump, by showing a charge with his shoulder. This annoyed me the most.

    Great batsman that he is/was, he has always been arrogant and his picking on Nat Ioannides, a young, small,female sports journo at Tullamarine was pathetic. He excused the three men in her group ( cameramen probably) and loudly said it was all her fault that there were cameras at the airport, when his team arrived. Tony Jones called him a bully and that is probably on the money.

    I have never liked him, much preferring guys like Bumrah and Tendulkar who are modest champions.

    I see he got a slap on the wrist for the incident.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.

    • PREGAME: Geelong

      After a one-year reprieve, the Demons return down the freeway to Kardinia Park — the site of both one of our greatest triumphs and one of our darkest days — as they face the Cats under Friday night lights. This one could get ugly. Who comes in, and who comes out?
