It is a question of which of the others is fit to loose the laces of his Cotton Oxford boots." In this whole situation, I'm not to concerned about what he did or didn't do, or what ban he did or didn't get. The thing that bothers me is that the IRB were cowed into 'investigating' only after some rather loud bitching and whining by a couple hack journo's/bloggers. They'll be sitting back, smug as shit because ......... A: they feel they got one over the ABs B: they manipulated the IRB into doing their bidding. Despite the official response to the offending, being by the book.
