> Slandering the good name of footy.

Oh, that's rich Max - 'the good name of football'. The names invariably linked with drugs and trouble like 'Maradonna' and 'Gaza' - Or perhaps phrases like 'the Hand of God' or 'hooligans riot again'. Oh yes, we wouldn't want to sully that sort of name.

BTW, I'll give credit where it's due - the NZers criketers have a really good side at the moment - can they make it last though?
