I guess, it's hard for him to stay out of trouble, that is if this is true, which I think it probably isn't. I am still considering what the woman has to gain from this, other then "Fame" or "money"

Nicki ... how could you be shocked?

Come on - Warne's got more than enough form on the board. I understand he is easy prey for anyone smart enough to dud him, but you'd have to say Shane ain't real bright, because he specialises in getting himself into such situations where he's ripe for the picking.

He is a wonderful, wonderful cricketer, but I feel really let down at times by his foolishness. To have been playing so well and then get caught for masking agents AND TO LIE ABOUT IT... I know that's a separate issue, but there comes a time where you just can't give a guy the benefit of the doubt any more.

Disappointed again.

Maybe they should trace Warney's phone calls from now on, then he won't have to worry about these "scandals" anymore.

I guess shocked wasn't the right word, what I'm trying to say is I find these latest allegations hard to believe like we all know Warney is silly but is he really that stupid you know? I guess no one would be shocked going by Warne's history.

However, even if it is true, I know being a role model he has to act in a certain way but WHO CARES, who really cares if Shane Warne sent some girl a few text messages? I surely don't and it really annoys me how the media make such an issue out of it. Fair enough if the girl was traumatised from the situation but when she's asking for $400,000 to sell her story I find it hard to believe that Warney sending her some text messages has ruined her life! It's all about money and the media are making her rich fast!

Sporting people like Shane Warne do have a level of responsibility as role models to act in a certain way but I really feel this is taken too far. This issue of him sending another women text messages should be no ones concern except for him and his wife. There's a lot more important issues happening in the world and it appauls me that such a thing makes headline news.

Who really cares who he messages its got nothing to do with anyone who and what he does, its like he is the only person in the world to do it ...... I dont believe this story is true i also heard she is going to sue hooks on his comments oh plz that just makes the story look more stupid. If its true how did warne get her number to start with ? did she lead him on just to get $$$ and cause trouble ...does she still have the messages warne sent her or has she deleted them if she has them show us to prove its true idf she has deleted them then i believe this is a stunt to get money and move out of where she lives ...doesnt she claim she hs to move due to death threats ? oh plz this story get more stupid every day i hear it ...so come on love show us the messages to prove your story then i will eat my words lol.
