McDermott Australia bowling coach

[Burgey]

loved Big Mc still remember a huge six Wasim hit him at the Adelate Oval one of the biggest hits ever.

Was that the one which landed in the bar under the scoreboard? Was a bloody massive hit.

For me, in a lot of ways now it's a whole different ball game. My involvement over the last 18 months has been basically in a batting consultancy role, coming in and out for Test matches. In a lot of ways that's difficult, because you have a little bit of time with the guys and then you're away again, and there are big gaps in between.

Somewhat revealing. A part time batting coach?!

So we've had a part time fielding coach, part time selectors, now we see that even our batting coach has been part too. FFS.

It is. Mike Young was reduced to a part-time role, and I'm sure howardj will happily enlighten you on this incident.

You got that out of the piece?

I read it and didn't understand a word of what Langer was going on about.

Colour me a little shocked at this part;

In this day and age, bowlers don't tend to bowl so much. You don't often see a lot of the state players or senior players playing at club level, so you get two ten-minute hits on a Tuesday and Thursday night against bowlers. Then at state level, a lot of the coaches in the set-up don't like their bowlers bowling too much in the nets because they want to keep them fresh for the contest. So you don't get to face high-quality bowling in the nets enough. If that's the case, it's hard to take a bowling-machine technique into a first-class game or a Test match, because on a bowling machine you can survive in first gear. In a Test match or a first-class game, you've got to be in fourth or fifth gear every single ball.

John Howard has been overlooked for yet another top position within the game of cricket. I'm surprised as he appears to have everything required to be the perfect bowling coach.
