Just like in 1981, it will be a matter of time Australian%u2019s starts to apologies in shame of what they have done now in 2007. If anyone interested I am more than happy to send few more articles which proves how the Australians have cheated in the past (in Cricket and in other sports too).
As for the Ian Chappell, he is an Australian so I leave it Australians to decide how good he is.
I can only imagine the response of the Australians, if Sri Lanka had won the cup and later they discover Sri Lankan players (i.e. Jayasuriya, Mahela, Sangakara, etc) have used such tactics. Then all those who protect such tactics would have an entire different story to stay. It is bit funny when you think of their mentality (then again maybe it is the genetics, after all they come from such background. Read the following for more)

Following is what Dept. Of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Australian Government (http://www.dfat.gov.au/aib/history.html) has to say about the convict history of Australia.
In all, about 160 000 men and women were brought to Australia as convicts from 1788 until penal transportation ended in 1868. The convicts were joined by free immigrants from the early 1790s
