despite being rubbed out of the game for a year on drugs charges , suspect dealings with bookies and a strange fetish for sexaual txt messages. Shane Warne is the greatest cricketer since Bradman will he be enough alone for australia to retain the Ashes ?

yes

nope, not even the fat Aussie Warne can save what is a very average Aussie team compared to the past few years.

im hoping that dirty fat prick can win for us!
Although born in england, i still want the aussies to win.

It doesn't matter how good at something a person can be, if they're an arrogant prick that obviously loves themself - I fucking hate them.
Modesty is massively underated. Winning with dignity is a beautiful thing to see.
Oh, and Warne's face when he was bowled out in the last test was priceless. He just looked like a fat schoolboy that had been played by the captain so everyone could laugh at him.

I disagree.
The english players have said on a number of occasioons that Shane is always the first to congratulate them when he has been on the losing side.
When he bowled Freddie out after a storming century, shane made a point of applauding flintoff as he left the pitch.
I'm and englishman btw.

i think you are confusing the man's personal issues with his sporting life.
I don't think they are comparible.
I couldn't care less if he loves himself or is a womaniser. That's none of my business.
He is a fantastic sportsman and we all should be grateful for what he gives the game.
And I'm english!

yes "SHAYNE" is a cock but there is no disputing his talent and bowling figures
- inspiration0
I'm not saying he isn't a fantastic bowler - the figures can't be ignored.
But personally I don't separate on field/off field with any sportsman.

I don't see how you can know what someone is like off the field unless you actually know them?

(Sep 9 05, 03:24)So how come so many on this site hate on others. Eg. GW Bush, 2Advanced, Apple etc... It's all about perception, personal opinion and maybe a bit of the media.

i don't like it when sportspeople do dodgy shit just cos so many kids look up to them. but only the serious stuff, like racist attacks (like certain footballers), or playing in countries run by dictators so they'll get lots of cash etc.

i'm supporting England, but Warne is a brilliant player, a fair sportsman, and a big personality.
Most cricket fans absolutely love him, no matter where they come from.

...and its great when he starts banter with the batsmen

carn shaayyne!!

Warne should be sent back to Oz just for the shockingly bad and cheap hair restoration advert he's appearing in with Mike Gatting in the UK at the moment, it makes me cringe it's that bad!

noice aareaaas shaaaayyne!!!

Nobody wants the Oz to lose more than me, but Warne is ludicrously talented and as such desrves plenty of respect on the pitch.
I saw the Australians play at Essex a week ago and it was amusing to watch them go for 500+ in a day, but they battered even more the next day when they batted. You can't deny their quality. Fortunately England finally have a team that's good enough to give them a going over
