After 12 years of pain and defeat at the hands of the Aussies as a player and hearing various wisecracks and jokes at my teammates' expense, I felt it was time to give the Aussies back some of their own medicine.
I've got no sympathies for that man. Every time the ball came to me at Melbourne or Sydney I used to be petrified ... it was a case of get it in your hands or get it away, otherwise the flack you got was awful.
