I want to talk briefly about my crew……My crew has basically been the same since Barmy Army. Matty Weiss ( the boss ) /Jake Avent - not sure what he does even after 3 shows together/Myles Carney – my main man who organises all of us and my best mate Hugh Jackman (apparently wearing his Wolverine claws whilst doing the Voice Overs) have been on all the shows plus the editor John Cameron and his team back in Sydney.

I have always loved John Cameron as he is the main man when it comes to editing the show, he tries his best to make the show as good as possible. We have had two different cameramen, one called Stu Wilson and a Victorian called Chris but called Boner!!!

Matty Laing who takes the shots of me in the crowd has been with me since Bolly and we share a lot of time together during the shows…I could not think of a better bloke to share the experience with me.

The show is a team event and the people that work on the show are sensational, without them we could not make the show. Thank you guys, plus all the teams behind the scenes at Seed Productions and Granada Productions.

We had more players/ex players and legends in the show overall than the other shows combined. Starting with Viv and ending with Boony with Big Bird Joel Garner/Punter/M Clark/Mitch Johnson/Mike Hussey.

We wanted me to face another international bowler to bowl to me as Warney did in Barmy Army and Bing Lee in Bolly. We asked Mitchell Johnson and he said ‘yep/no worries’ but the only day that we could do it was rain/rain and more rain…..I fancied myself against him 2!!!! May be in the Ashes Return…that’s the plan…

Let’s hope we can all do it again!!!
