CHEATING

CHEATING

You were once considered Australia's favourite son 
I will not pass any judgment what you have done
As captain of your country you wanted to win
However cheating is not the answer it's the ultimate sin
 
The tears at the airport when you faced the press
The consequences now your life in a mess
Life like sport is about winning and losing
You decided to cheat that was your choosing
 
Others played their part that much is true
As captain of the team the responsibility rests with you
I will not pass judgment of your actions on that day
However you must take the punishment that will now come your way

Hi Tony 

Google Steve Smith Australian cricket captain (don't ask me to explain the rules of cricket to you there is not enough space !) He was found to be cheating on the outcome of a match by allowing his team mate to alter the condition of the ball. If you can't find the story I will eat my hat! 

Your comments and kind message mean such a lot
Peace and joy 
Kieran
