Quote of the Week: Haughty Aussies

Eat Cricket, Drink Cricket, Sleep Cricket

Geoff Lawson, current Pakistan coach and former Aussie cricketer, told the Daily Telegraph:

“There’s certainly been a lot of feeling from ex-players Geoff Lawson: Aussies are Arrogantwho think the baggy green has been disrespected. Some of these (current) players need to be spoken to. I certainly don’t agree with dragging (Ricky) Ponting’s captaincy, I just think a bit of counselling needs to be done with how these players perceive themselves.” “As an ex-Australian player I was pretty disappointed. Perception is everything and the outside world thinks that this Australian team is arrogant and not well behaved. Whether the team themselves think that is another issue, but I can guarantee you the rest of the cricket world

Honestly, I think they just need some humbling defeats to set them right. Break a leg, India. Uh, I’ve used that phrase twice this week, haven’t I?
