On day 1 Ricky ponting edged a catch was given not out and didn't walk, Andrew symonds smashed one given not and didn't walk.

Were either of these 2 branded cheats by The entire Australian community - of course not they were applauded and the Indians were made to appear the bad guys for not being impressed with the umpires

Waaa. This is the Ashes, let us be indignant FFS

Bullshit, I don't like Broad but I'm not going to criticise him for not walking.

Poor umpiring indeed but to call Broad a cheat when Australian players have done similar is a bit rich. If Clarke hadn't wasted a referral on a fully going down leg side, wouldn't have to worry about it.

And that's why I consider Adam Gilchrist the greatest cricketer to have played in the past 2 decades

You never walk. As Bill Woodfull said after he "hit one hard" and got caught behind in the 30s. "George why didn't you give that out? I was ready to walk the you said not out and I didn't want to offend you" or words to that effect. Source "The game is not the same" by A McGuillvray.

The only time you walk is when your car breaks down.
