Respect to Stokes, he walked, not one Aussie would ever do that.

This. Can’t imagine a single one of the cheats having the integrity to walk in this situation.

What a ****ing man. Keeps going up in my estimation.

Gilchrest did it and got slammed for it. I dont like this part of the Aussie game. But hey 303 runs needed with 6 wickets in hand, you better start praying boys :cheers:

Bet you’re sitting there in your stripey jump suit, swag bag over your shoulder loving this aren’t you.

What can I say. **** Yeah.

Its funny I have been here for 30 years so I support Australia in all sports but NOT football, cant even be bothered watching the local game. I have followed BHA all my life and watched England fail miserably time and time again, but these are my teams even though its been over 30 years since I saw Brighton play. I am loving the fact that we are in the PL all of a sudden I can watch every single game live, frigging brilliant.

Armchair cricket fan, how on earth can you take the Aussies over us when you are English? Traitor.

Spirit of the game young Trig, spirit of the game.

Although a certain English batsmen often regarded as one of the best in the game was also a serial cheat. Often refusing to leave the ground when dismissed because in his words "they have come to see me play" the bloke in question W.G.Grace

How can you say he's a cheat? Do you have evidence?

How is that cheating? Waiting for the umpire to call? It's what the Aussies still do, they don't ever walk without being given out. Stokes showed the spirit of the game, not one of those sandpapering cheats would ever do it.

The Guy would put the ****ing bails back on after being bowled and refuse to walk.
