Their tactics against Smith bordered on pure Bodyline. They targeted his head cause they couldn't get him out so they wanted to knock him out. The lack of care for Smith when his was downed was a disgrace. Archer was laughing. They couldn't get him out so they tried to knock him out (or worse).

Bowling to target the head should be out-lawed. You can't target the head in football, you can't target the head in baseball, you can't target the head in AFL, you can't target the head in NRL/NFL. Why can you bowl deliberately to hit a guy in the head with a 100mph missile in cricket?

you obviously didn't watch the bowling at Broad and Anderson in the last Ashes tour in Australia where the umpires forgot the rules of the game with both 2 bouncers an over and intimidatory bowling, Smith is the number 1 ranked batter in the world a big differnce to the bowling undertaken by Johnson and Starc at tailenders.
