He's done nothing wrong and has been cleared of any wrong doing .
Its a whole load of hogwash......it was 4yrs ago, all relevent parties (CA, Tas Cricket and his wife) sorted through it and closed off on it, no doubt giving him a warning privately.
4yrs is a long time, daresay he learnt a valuable lesson etc. I highly doubt he is a serial sexting pest......CA are hypocrites of the highest order for not standing firm and supporting Tim, facing the precious do-gooders of today by saying it was in the past, he didn't murder anyone and its only come to light today so nothing has changed.
...which leads to something else.....why did it come to light today after all this time? Has someone got an axe to grind?
Of course that kind of behaviour is unexceptable....but as Dermie said this arvo (I tuned in to hear the news) it was between consenting adults at the time and he and his wife have put it behind them ...
I'm no cricket fan, but I do know what is happening in the cricket world and who is who.....Tim Paine should not be crucified over this just because it's become public now..
edit: Have just read on the DailyMail that the girl in question was ok with the texting and only made a complaint when she was picked up 1 YEAR later for allegedly shop lifting. Hmmm.
...so Paine gets publicly crucified as a result. What a sweety she is!
