So it's all right for them to strut around and put everyone down, but if someone stands up to them and gives it back, it's disrespectful right?

Must use that argument next time someone has a pot shot at an Aussie cricketer. I'm sure the response would be pretty understanding.

LOL, our guys didn't say anything. It was australians that were being giant douchebags. If you are getting your ass handed to you, the least you can do is show a little respect...especially when you are down 31 points and 5 seconds to go into the game.

Our sportsmen are hated around the world? are you sure you aren't confusing sports with people like george bush and your president?

Australia doesn't have a president :|

Who would want to give the most arrogant sportsmen around from the most arrogant country in the world any form of respect whatsoever?
