    I think the point thats being missed is that sport at this level is not a pastime, its a business, and winning has prizes and expectations. The guys are no doubt on performance based packages, the sponsors want a winning team for their money. I don't condone what has happened, and no doubt its happened before but gone undetected, however with the amount of money floating around for this entertainment, its turned into a case of win however you can, for all the reasons we probably detest.

    The disappointing thing for me is amateur sports look up to the players at this level and think they retain the same passion and sportmanlike attitude that they carry into the game they love to play. Probably the players are miles apart in the ethics stake.

    It was just something which turned up on my FB page Bob.

    As it is, it seems that Josh Bornstein is a fine upstanding citizen. Left & proud of it. http://joshbornstein.com.au/about/

    But let's face it - the humanitarian aspect of his quote is not, & should never be 'party political'.

    ps. I don't expect you to share my views - just like the 'old days' alongside the Murray eh? .
