    Very sweet hit. Wonder if the cop saw the funny side

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    Well it was late but not vindictive, I think he'll get off with a yellow card at the most. I'd blow the penalty and warn him about not using his arms in the tackle!

    Looked a touch high as well..........................

    I doubt it would affect his IPL commitments unless it was an ICC suspension and not a Cricket Australia suspension

    i suppose that QLD must be getting bored...

    Great weather with the flooding
    Reds performing to there expectations of finishing in the bottom half
    Broncos only just beating the redcliffe dolphins
    Bullets getting knocked out of the finals in BBall

    and now the cricket, the fans have to enjoy something ....

    Symmonds won't face sanctions from Cricket Australia (todays paper) and won't face charges from QLD Police (radio news)

    QLD Police are charging the streaker and he will be fined $9000. Pretty expensive moment of madness

    Pretty good story to tell though. Got decked in his birthday suit by none other than Roy. Though I don't know it's a story worth $9000.

    He can always sell that story to New Idea.

    I reckon he should have just done a nice cover drive and knocked him for a 2
    at least he wouldn't have risked his bowling arm.

    Excellent stuff by Symonds - more of that type of stuff and I might even start watching it - wonder if Robbie Deans will look him up - he got the man down no problems

    BTW the streaker only got fined $1500

    I've been to the cricket a fair few times since i turned 18 (legal drinking age) and i have been know to have an ale or two, but i have never been drunk enough to decide to strip off and run onto the field.

    The fine would be bad enough (espeacially if it were the maximum) but a 5 year ban, i couldnt live with that. But i suppose there are ways around things like that.

    Probably to keep him from pursuing charges against Symonds. He wil probably still have to cop the 5 year ban i would imagine

    I have a Saffa customer at work and he used to play in the equivalent of state cricket and he told me the same sort of thing happened over there but the batsman left a nice kookaburra imprint on the streakers ass.

    Greg Chappell did the same thing in New Zealand back in the 1970's, smacked a streaker who came close to him on the ass
