Anchor no one pays attention to whats said on Facebook and Twitter.(Trolls)
Aussies are a bit more thick skinned.
Remember Jason Gillespie is from Indigenous heritage.
Jason only criticism was his preparation for the Perth ,test.
Mate, not on FB, but media in general is where we got our information.They look for anything that will give them a click.But these outlets are supposed to be unbiased. Same for political views, but are far from it in all spheres.
I understand and know of Gillespies raising.
I thought it uncaring when Khawaja was to stand on the dias with his first series win. The Aussie boys did not have the thought about their team mate about his beliefs.
It was only after Cummins realised that Uzzie was not on stage that he stopped the fizz shower.

@gtrxuone , I know my views here are vastly different to many other posters, but I call it as I see it.
I have been a fan/knocker of Uzzie for a long time, Swayed between like and dislike, but always as a cricketer. Never bothered about the colour of his skin or his beliefs.
He made references to his being dropped at times.
I recall at one stage he was told, maybe by JL, to go away and work on his fielding. At that time, he and Joe Burns had to be close to the two worst fieldsmen that had pulled on the Baggy Green cap.
To his credit, Uzzie did improve his fielding. As a slipper, he became competent.Not brilliant but…
As an out fielder he did improve, but again , only just.

well after these pressers and interviews
it’s a good thing there’s only 5 or 6 days of the marriage remaining
same as Warner hung around for 2 to 3 years too many
and now no transition
just a T20 space cadet with 2 shots from you guessed it NSW
and our best middle order batsman having to open
and McDonald now exposed as not enforcing training before tests
just golf and not letting a 38 year old retire

I guess the CA amateurs at least draw the line at sinking piss at a beach resort after a defeat… that must be a plus… surely?
