Fun fact: chick I used to work with potted Joe Burns years ago.
Is challenging your boss and arguing really a smart move when you want to be re-employed?

If this ends up in court it will cause irreparable damage to their image (what’s left of it)... manning up, copping it on the chin and putting in the hard yards is what they should do.
Go to England and get used to conditions in time for an 800 run series each in the ashes

It won't be court, it will be an appeal.
They can't play County Cricket.
They're going to have to try and get picked for the WC and Ashes on club form. Suspension will end in March. Ashes and WC are starting May.
Going to be very hard to make those tours even with your punishment over.

That would depend on if you feel hard done by and I think they do.
Also, if they feel they have not defended themselves adequately and feel the possibility of reducing the ban is real .
That is something they will decide once they are back home and can properly take stock.
The deteriorating behaviour has happened under this boards watch so they have gone from doing nothing and leaving it up
to others to sledge hammer.
What can come of it- reduced ban? More players get banned? But still Australian Cricket have the ultimate say and don't have to pick you.
It's like courts saying you can't not pick the SL players- Well we can watch us. Alf just isn't good enough.
You're going to fight to be in a team that doesn't want you and doesn't have to pick you. Creating more angst and tarnishing your image further.

Or the complete opposite, in a glass half full world, CA realise they went overboard, reduce the ban, apologise, and the world keeps spinning.

That may be Warners future as it seems that the playing group has pointed the finger at him.
Time will tell of course but admin in all sports have a tendency to be lenient on the talent especially if you lack it.

But can CA ban them from English cricket?

The article I read said CA can't do shit, and it's up to the other bodies to ban or not ban. IPL banned them on top.

I'd read something the other day that, they would basically need a clearance from CA to play IPL, irrelevant now as IPL ditched them both
CA can; they can stop you playing the IPL or other competitions. But their contract period ends 30/06 so not sure what can be done after that.
They gave those bigger guys a pay rise with the last deal so they would be compensated if they ever didn't want them to play and rest.
They're contracted to CA. The same way the Broncos could say you're not going to play for another team in England.
