Guards of Honour

It can be a nice touch, would like to see all the opposition batters padded up and giving one to an ATG bowler as he takes the field though.

They are definitely an great show of respect. Almost brought a tear to my eye when the South Africas formed one for Ponting.

I don't mean to sound horrible but I'm not sure that Hussey really deserved one. Don't get me wrong, he has been a champion for Austalia and well deserving of handshakes from everyone when he gets out for the last time. But if anyone and everyone gets a guard of honour when they retire it kind of loses it's meaning.
