“I will think naughty thoughts about you whilst we watch the tv”.
Tim Paine only has himself to blame but you have to be a real piece of work to send messages like that to a married man. Sounds like it was a two-way thing until the dick pic. I wonder if she told him he’d gone too far or just went straight to HR to complain? Sounds like a real femme fatale this woman.

CA are absolute grubs so unsurprising they've pushed on knowing this.

Every sportsman from every sport will eventually have to stand down and apologise for what they did years ago. What a joke the world has become.

i mean, if sending someone a picture of your dick isnt a breach of a code of conduct then they might want to look at that

After the Duncan Harrison* thing a couple months ago, CA felt the need to start tightening up a few policies and perhaps that required them to re-examine some instances from the past.

cheating on a marriage is just breaking a promise to be faithful. people who do so are complete scumbags, but its still just breaking a promise.
but violating someone by sending them unwanted explicit images is something else.

Did i hear right he's just stepped down as captain ???
So if he hasn't quit, why step down ?

It's disgraceful behaviour by both, but if she's not married and he is, then Paine is absolutely the bigger 'piece of work', he's the one that made vows, has the children, accepts the responsibilities. Attacking her and casting her as the villain is poor form.

Wasn’t that line in Hamlet?
What did they say?
What if it’s Finch????
They both were married or atleast both in relationships, according to articles

She’s 100% correct about the dick pic
But claiming unwelcome comments while also engaged in sexting is a bit rich

Has to be Cummins now you would think.
Yeah, this is true - it feels like something that should've been better addressed at the time. I'm on the fence about the whole text exchange though. He definitely upped the ante from flirtatious texting to sexually explicit texting (which I imagine she wasn't comfortable with that escalation), but an unsolicited picture of your junk is a whole different kettle of fish.
From his statement, it seems like he was honest with his wife about it when it all happened, so at least that's a redeeming quality. But seriously, just keep it in your pants. You've made a commitment to your wife - honour it. I don't have much time for people that cheat on their partners. It's pretty base level decency not to.

The one thing he gets credit for is restoring our PR image and then he goes and does this.

Please, it's not the world's fault he sent a dick pic to a woman. Believe it or not, I've made it this far in life without ever sending an unsolicited dick pick, groping a woman, racially abusing someone etc. Being held to account for shit behaviour isn't a problem, shit behaviour is the problem. And where people are genuinely sorry for past poor behaviour, people are generally forgiving and move on. Stop trying to paint people doing shit things as victims.
