Sometimes silence is the better part of valour. Those who dislike sports should zip it today. Thomasina, you've shown your cards when you said the bowler should be prosecuted for manslaughter.

Why all this fuss over Phillip Hughes, he is after all only a cricketer, let's hope Tony Abbott and Bill Shorten attend the funeral of the four people killed in a car accident in the South East, they are as important as Phillip Hughes, there is no doubt about it we live in a celebrity society, definately class distinction, all the prayers in the world didn't save Hughes, no prayers for the accident in the S.E. all treated the same in death, thank goodness this whole saga is coming to an end, perhaps two more days of media hi archly reporting.
