Paine, who has two children with Bonnie, said the text message exchanges with the Cricket Tasmania employee began as normal communications “but then it became a flirtatious exchange that should never have”.Īsked why he took it to the next level, he replied: “Maybe it’s as simple as stupidity? Or an inflated ego? Or feeling needed or wanted, being flattering. Meanwhile, Paine and his wife Bonnie spoke about the sexting saga that cost him the Australian captaincy in a wide-ranging interview published in the Herald Sun on Sunday. Tubb responded to questions from the Herald Sun by saying: “There’s no comment on that at all mate, I’m sorry.” “The principal says that since he (Tubb) came to work here, there have been no concerns about his conduct.” “The principal says he is shocked and concerned by the allegations but says that the school was unaware of these allegations and of the investigation until they surfaced in the media yesterday,” Duffy said. Speaking on The Today Show, reporter Ella Duffy said she spoke to Fenner, who told her he had no idea of the allegations until Sunday. At that time he was, and he remains, an employee of the South Australian Cricket Association, so we need to find out all the facts and then decide how we proceed,” Fenner told Nine. “We were not aware of that at the time that we employed him.

The Herald Sun reports Tubb left his coaching role at Cricket Tasmania after an investigation into his alleged conduct in 2018 - the same year Paine was cleared of any code of conduct breach by Cricket Australia and Cricket Tasmania - and took up a position as First XI coach at the school in 2019.
