It's not one way of doing things.
Sometimes players need technical help.
Sometimes players need, you know, whether it's mental help, whatever it is.
And we're trying to put as much of that resource back into it.
There's a reason why we took away a lot of, when we started, there was a lot of people in and around the setup in the dressing room all the time.
And we wanted to strip that back.
So you want players ultimately to be able to think for themselves and make good decisions and,
And at times, I reckon we've gone a little bit too far with that stripping back that resource.
And they're the things we're going to add back in, but also the system around it so that we can bring in, whether it's consultants, whatever it is, we can try and help our players improve quicker.
Just hopefully you'll see a side that everything should have been done really before that.
So we're bringing in, you know, I believe we've got the makings of a world-class bowling attack.
They're certainly not there yet.
I mean, you think it took Jimmy Anderson five years before he became the bowler that he was.
And we've brought in someone that Michael will know, maybe not so much Alistair, but in Troy Cooley, who I think is one of the best, if not the best bowling coach around.
And it's now his job to make sure.
Now, he's worked with that 2005 team.
He got involved with them with the Flintoff-Harmison, Jones, Hoggard, that batch of bowlers.
He then went and was involved with Australia, who's had great success.
And they've got Stark, Cummins, Hazelwood, those guys.
He's been with India as well.
