Only kidding

Still, a pretty stupid and unwarranted thing to do if you ask me! Who gives a sh*t if someone streaks? It just adds to the fun of the game!

Think he should lose his match fee, but a ban is a bit OTT!

So what the problem with that guy??? Why can't someone run around naked? it's "nature style"!!!
BAN HIM I SAY!!.
Maybe he felt intimidated for something he saw on the other dude

I'm not a violent guy, but I'm glad the player did what he did. If it was some last place team playing a game at the end of the season where it didnt mean anything, ok - streak away. Let the security goons handle that. But if I'm reading this correctly it was a Final, which obviously is very important to the players and organizations. On top of that the streaker was running right at the player (from what I gather in that article). He's lucky he didnt get a crack of the wood!

Perhaps he had a political message he trying to bring attention to like how the naked get less clothes and the clothed are getting more clothes?

.......On top of that the streaker was running right at the player (from what I gather in that article)......

he was probably going for a jump over the stumps - a modus operandi common amoungst cricket streakers.

Ban who? The streaker or the player? Both are mentioned in the article.

Ban the streaker. Simply because he should be banned from life anyway.

Don't ban the player. The streaker was neither a rival player, an official, nor a spectator. He gave up his spectator status as soon as he entered the field of play.

imo

That's what happens when you charge at Symo, he's a big boy!

Also yes guys it was a final, right on the razors edge with Symonds (the guy who did the smashing) and Hayden just getting into a flow before it was broken by this twat. Batting in cricket demands uber concentration, in fact more than uber, you're dealing with a ball travelling between 150-160KM/h bouncing off it's seam and doing whatever and the last thing you need when you're getting your eye in is some dickhead causing a delay.

We ended up losing anyway in the last over, by 9 runs.

The streaker HAS been banned. Theyre talking about banning the batsman!

"Symonds, who briefly contemplated a career in rugby league before he broke into the Australian team, also faces the risk of punishment under the International Cricket Council's strict code of conduct.
The code includes a section banning players from any physical assault of a rival player, official or spectator."

Utter bs. The guy had evaded security already, so they got some help from Symonds. If anything, he should be commended for assisting security in quelling a disturbance.

I read...

...
The man was arrested by police and faces the possibility of a fine and a life ban from the Gabba.

as opposed to ".... and faces a life ban from the Gabba and the possiblity of a fine."

The streaker faces a ban without question!
