For once I'd say he is spot.

Interesting info about Troy Cooley is emerging. Apparently after the 2005 Ashes in the post mortem discussions Ponting said I want Cooley and he got him.
Maybe England were unable to retain him who knows.

As for Harmison when he first came on the test scene he was wayward and erratic with a horrible bowling action and I wondered why he had been selected.

With the arrival of Toohey as bowling coach Harmison was totally transformed and despite his action became a very dangerous and effective bowler utilising his height to the full.

Since Toohey has left Harmison has become gradually less and less effective.

His attitude is clearly a problem and as some people on this baord have suggested if he hasn't got the right attitude, temperament or bottle why bother with him. No player earns the right to be pampered like a baby he's being paid enough and should be more than proud to be given the opportunity to represent his country.

It's hard to imagine an Aussie having such a soft attitude though I remember Kim Hughes crying when he resigned as Aussie captain.

Like Newcastle United Harmison is becoming a loser.
