As a spin bowler he was very good, as a sportsman he was a joke, and not much better as a human being.

Not liking Shane Warne has nothing to do with calling yourself an Australian.

I can't stand Cathy Freeman or Jana Pittman either, it doens't make me not Australian.

Well this thread proves one thing.

He may well be hero or villain, legend or laughing stock BUT everyone knows who he is.

A sad day indeed for all Victorians. Warney is an absolute legend, not a god because he has shown plenty of times that he is indeed human, but he is still one of the greatest sportspeople this country has ever produced.

Hope he enjoys the drab british weather.

In the Herald today he says that he's not actually moving there or selling his house here, it's just a house for him to live in when he plays there

How did he disgrace us? By bieng the greatest spin bowler of all time? Or by coming back after bieng shunned by the whole world, and is even better now than he ever was?

He served his time for taking the ACB-banned substance, he was banned for 12 months, I don't see why people keep bringing that up, and try to overshadow his entire career of over 530 test wickets.

PS - as you may tell I reckon Warney is OK lol...

I'm glad I'm not the only one. When Freeman ran her race at the Olympics, I turned the tv off.
