Shane has just been suspended for 12 months....I thought 6 months was fair but I'm very biased.

To McGuane's 77 Bounces. I moved your 'Warne gets 12 months' to this topic as it deals specifically with this matter. Thanks for posting, m8.

The verdict passed down bans Shane Warne from all cricket for 12 months to finish on February 10 2004.

All the details are still to emerge and an appeal is possible.

Reactions to this decision are already very interesting and will no doubt continue.

It seems a strange decision, given that the panel has stated 'guilty as charged' and 'no exceptional circumstances' were found.

I eagerly await their full statement to find out how they could give that verdict when a 2 year ban was said to be the MINIMUM penalty if found guilty of the charge.

The findings of the case may never be known to the public.

Personally i think Warne will appeal and beat the charge. But at the end of the day who is he fooling ??

Isnt this typical....teh press kill off the best spin bowler that the world has ever known,Dick Pound the Canadian,states that Warne gets what he deserved,and every one cries 'poor mouth' when he gets 12 months.
Look at it logically,he announced that he wanted to give the 1 dayers away to concentrate on tests etc. He dethrowned Peter Taylor some years back to be able to play the game.....dont you thingk that justification has come back to haunt him.
He admitted that he took the drug,so therefore he suffers the consequencies.
In other sports if you do the same thing then you suffer,so why not cricket.
What is the ban for AFL/VFL on a banned substance????

Well i think its obvious that Warne is guilty. But sometimes as long as you have a good lawyer and you create some doubt you can get off.

Even if he does get off when he appeals it doesnt change the facts of what happened.

So what are you saying, m8? Guilty of what? He's not denying he took the pill. And he's been found guilty of taking the pill. Having a good (very expensive) lawyer DIDN'T get him off, did it?

And PeterWH, what's this mean?? > "He dethrowned Peter Taylor some years back to be able to play the game.....dont you thingk that justification has come back to haunt him"

Are you really saying Taylor 'got him back' because Warne was selected ahead of him, all those years ago!? Lol.

I think if the ACB don't publish the proceeding and evidence, there will be a bit of an outcry. They got Warne and M Waugh into more trouble hushing up the bookie business a few years ago. Hopefully the ACB has learnt a lesson there.

Again, until all the evidence/testimony is made public, it's a bit presumptious to cry fair or foul.

Peter, deTHROWNing a bowler is probably a good thing. Should have happened to Murali yerars ago!

Well obviously he cant deny taking the pill......lmao lmao Not even Warne is that stupid. Its just nice and convenient that he has an excuse. Very convenient that he plays the ignorance card. If you break the law you cant plead ignorance can you? If i break the spped limit i cant say i wasnt aware now can i. Its my responsibility to know the law. The same goes for Warne.

Bookies
Sex Calls
Joe the Camera Man

Its never Warnes fault......Warne is just very unlucky isnt he Image

Well, I'm not so sure about that, JLC. I think we could all easily imagine you having an argument with a speed camera.

Bookies? Was there more than one? Warne didn't say someone made him do it, did he?
Sex calls? Plural, m8? Know something we don't?
Joe the camera man? Didn't Joe own up? In which case the whole silly saga had nothing to do with Warney.

Can we cut the pathetic jokes and show Warney some respect please! LoL I love your joke though Donny about JLC fighting with a speed camera that's great! Image Sure Warne did the wrong thing and he isn't denying that and the fact he is saying his mother gave it to him isn't an excuse he is stating where exactly he got the pill from so I don't know why that's such an issue! If he didn't say where he got the pill from then we would be making an issue out of that! Leave the guy alone for god sake, he is only human and just because he is a sportsman does that give us a right to judge him? We all make mistakes and pay the price and that's what's going to happen to him I doubt any appeal will help but he can try! It is a damn shame that "weight, image and appearance" have almost ruined his career! Keep fighting Warney!

Oh come on Donny wake up m8........you seriously think it was Joe the cameraman ?? Are you really that guillable ?? When in the history of channel nines cricket coverage have you heard any sound coming from a camera man ?? Joe the camera man was a scape goat.......i thought that was pretty obvious ?? Yet you always hear the wicket keepers and bowlers to a lesser degree.

Well there has been only one sex call offence. So that means he got caught at his first offence then ?? How unlucky Image

We only have heard of Wayne Carey cheating once. Do you believe he only cheated once ??

At the end of the day he took the tablet. It doesnt matter whether Joe the camera man or the head of Heinz baked beans gave him the tablet. The fact is he shouldnt have been taking it.
