I suppose you could construe as ungentlmanly conduct, but then so is sledging, and we all know who are the masters at that.

Quite - mouthing off at the balcony like that isn't particularly gentlemanly, if the lipreading I've seen is accurate.
England were in a pretty good position in that the sub who ran him out was on for someone with a genuine injury, and I'd like to see the Whinging Pont try and argue that Simon Jones should have been hobbling around the outfield instead of going for a scan (after the morning's session he should have been damn glad to see the back of him, I'd have thought).
Anyway, Clarke was absent for most of the last Test and I don't recall England complaining.
They call us Whinging Poms, but it's yet another sport we invented where for the real professionals you have to tip your hat to the Aussies.
