Mcgrath "on the spot" over his behaviour
Glenn Mcgrath is surprised with a question re his behaviour from Tony Greig....its a setup, and Mcgrath comes off second best...even sheepishly admitting to his questioning of umpires as wrong. The bully boy has been caught on the hop in this clip.

I thought he answered it pretty well, a career in politics maybe?

In my view there is absolutely no problem with Glenn's response.

My question is....What is the point of this thread??

I've seen that video before, and as well several hundred different news clips, videos and not so favourable stories on many players from each nation at one stage in the last ten years. In the heat of the battle of an international cricket match, Glen's behaviour is no different to that of many other players.

Again, I ask the question ....What is the point of this thread?? Will it just be an opportunity to revisit boring old news stories on Glenn and other cricketers?

Nothing wrong with what McGrath said, pretty standard sort of media comment I would've thought.

Haha geez, suprised the umpires didn't make a bigger deal out of it. Hayden upset a few people during that series if I remember rightly, Mark Taylor and Glenn McGrath being two of them.

Quite agree. That haircut's a shocker.
