its not up to the myopic and cherry picking Aussie media to decide whether this guy is a cheat, its up to the arbitration authority of the sport. Innocent until proven guilty.

Personally, I think it was wrong by the Aussie and there were other ways he could have made his protest.
But what does make me laugh is grosso. "This is poor sportsmanship from the skip....etc etc", but it's ok for his football mob to shirt pull at every opportunity, dive every two seconds, plead/beg with ref to card the opponent etc etc. Apparently this is acceptable and "sporting" from the inventors of such behaviour.

But correct about the chinese swimmer. I feel that he hasn't being prosecuted as ye, he probably won't be either.
Not all teams do it, but I suppose it's ok to pick and choose what is sporting or not when it suits trolls.

The international doping watchdog WADA said one countries athletes accounted for 147 anti-doping rule violations in 2016, the most recent year for which full figures are available. Nearly 61 ahead of France on 86 and almost double Australia on 75. Guess who Grosso?

Biased Aussie media are making hype about swimmers from other countries applauding but there is no solid evidence this is widespread. The context of the above evidence is important too. You can't cherry pick things and make a trial by media judgement. Look at what happened with Stajcic. That was trial by media until the real facts came out.

When you're discovered a one trick pony (eg Aussies very bad) it's usually to mask your own pitfalls.
No surprise you fit that mould.

I doubt he cares about Warne's swimming ability.God is an Englishman wrote:Is it proven he's a drug cheat?
If it's just allegations then what's his opinion on Thorpe?
If it's proven what's his opinion on shane warne?
A Scot, an American and a South African have also voiced their problems with sun yang.ozzie owl wrote:See a British swimmer staged a podium protest about Chinese swimmer Sun Yang.

Well Thorpe is a swimmer who had drug allegations so is on topic.Michael wrote:God is an Englishman wrote:Is it proven he's a drug cheat?

What does Warne and Thorpe have to do with this topic??
Maybe throw in a few "english" cheats like Dean Richards or the famous Stuart Broad!
