Seems like the Poms have taken the loss as badly as most Richmond ferals do in footy.

If the shoe was on the other foot, the Aussies would have been sooking up a treat. Bunch of hypocritical flogs
Grow your own dope - plant a Pom.
What's the difference between the Poms and a jumbo jet? The jet eventually stops whining.Starc's unawarded catch was just as controversial and we just got on with it. The Pom's are just a bunch of sooks.
How dare they dins this thread is a poty of year contender!never thought I'd have to cleanup a Cricket thread due to petty footy memes, but flogs is what flogs does.
Futhermore as Mr. Haig stated in a related interview on ABC insiders; ''the spirit of the game' is actually codified in the rules ironically set out by the MCC, whereas if any player's action is deemed to have controvened the spirit of the game the umpires can/will make descisons accordingly."Gideon Haigh in today's Murdoch press sums it up nicely.
"Because let’s be frank: it was not a day since every other English supporter had found themselves arguing for the letter of the law in the instance of Starc’s catch-that-wasn’t. Rightly so. This is a Test match. Laws apply with greater force in a skirmish between nations about a border and a dispute between neighbours over a fence.
The booing, as is most booing, was mainly harmless, carrying on as it did long past the point anyone could remember what they were booing, and becoming chiefly about companionship. The parrot cry of ‘same old Aussies, always cheating’ also invites the question of from whom they might have learned it. After all, you can trace the line of Ashes tit-for-tat back to the Oval in 1882 when, coincidentally, WG Grace ran out the Australian Sammy Jones for wandering out of his crease under a misapprehension the ball was dead. “I taught the lad a lesson,” Grace is reputed to have said afterwards; just so.
But the jostling of players in the members? Really? By virtue of the antiquity of the Long Room, and the assumption that people-like-us know how to behave, Lord’s retains the privilege of unusual proximity to the players [dash] the frisson from hearing a player’s spikes on the hardwood floor is one of cricket’s glories.
They will not have it long, however, if blimps and prigs want to vent fury on their visitors because they are unaware of the laws that … checks notes …. their own club sets for the world. And what could be a worse look in the week of the Equity in Cricket report than puce-faced, dim-bulb snobs picking fights with a placid, softly-spoken Muslim player? Chaps, pull yourselves together."
Albo fires back:The English PM proves he's no smarter than the rest of the sooks in the Long Room and chooses to add his name to the list of hypocrites.
