Tony Greig Quotations

I was employed as an investigator and my particular team, we were investigating the role of the business community in the genocide and we identified a bunch of leaders of the business community and I investigated two people.

Cricket the world over, I don't think, will ever know how different things would be without Kerry Packer.

I met with people who are already very angry with the tribunal.

And that was what I was asking to happen and I was told that the indictment would be signed, but I was coming to the end of my one-year contract, I had to return to New Zealand for personal reasons.

You have to understand that once an indictment has been signed, all countries that are signature to the U.N. charter will hand a person straight over. You dont have to go through the normal extradition process.

Well the war lasted for three months, from April of 1994 until the Tutsi army, the exiles as it were, gained control of the country and then it stopped.

One of the difficulties about interviewing people in Rwanda is that the country is trying to get on with ordinary life and some people just don't want to get involved in this.

Well I grew up in England, and I was in the London police.

Us investigators who went out into the field were faced on occasion with a lot of anger, by people saying why has it taken you five or six year to come and see me?

Each investigation team has a lawyer attached to it and there was a lawyer attached to me and my assistant.

When we got over the nastiness, if you like, of the battles associated with world cricket, he had this ability to fix the problems and then became the great ally of Cricket Australia, which I think said a bit about him.

Only ever had a dress on once, mate.

He was a bloke with such an incredible sense of fun and there was that charisma whenever you were associated with him. We'll all miss him greatly.

What I would be doing if I was Jaques is asking the selectors to be a bit more specific. I'd want to know what is exactly the problem.

The significant thing is that every run now counts double.

The thing that struck me the most was his concern for only the players. He was concerned the players had been downtrodden and it was his job to put it right. And put it right he did.

Australia has lost a truly great Australian. He was a very generous man, a bloke with an incredible sense of fun and that charisma that was around him.

The U.N. was there to protect other Rwandese.

They obviously have had to come up with something.

The U.N. has been so disappointing to date on the whole Rwanda issue that despite the people they've sent through, and I have no doubt their competence, in the end, the decision is going to be made by other people and not by them.
