He takes over when Australian cricket was loathed in the Cricket Playing world after sandpaper gate, 4 years later T20 world cup winners, Ashes retained in 2019 in the UK, Ashes won 3 weeks ago, both coaches have now gone, 2 home series lost to India. Player coup, player power by the most of the same characters who were involved in the South African scandal... Its not personal, they have engineered his departure..
As an Indian, it drives me so mad that Cricket boards (including BCCI) can just flip a finger to legends like Langer.. What the hell, this man was key part of the invincible Aussie team. Did y'all forget Steve Waugh's raiding party?
Pat ‘the snake’ Cummins pushes for Langer’s ousting, then fronts up to the media, throws his hands in the air and says “Nothing to do with me.” And you couldn’t have wiped the stupid grin off his face. Man up Patty and have the balls to stand by your convictions
Just part of the ANTI Langer campaign from the Eastern States journos. Langer has done a great job as coach and deserves another term despite the cries from some players and media.
Conn's unfortunately a mouthpiece for NSW Cricket & it's players. Naturally he'll promote the player's angle of Langer being overbearing. This is the same group of players who apparently had absolutely no idea about the ball being tampered with in South Africa. Give me a break!
Letting Langer go without a fight is a bigger story with what is not being said. Players & officials are all bound by confidentiality agreements, therefor only 'off the record ' accounts are available. Justin began his tenure during a very difficult period in Au cricket from the resignation of national coach 'Boof' Lehman to the reintegration of the offending players (after bans) from the ball tampering incident. His later period of coaching was a triumph in attaining a T20 world cup & an Ashes flogging (4 - nil). The dirt in regards to his abrupt resignation will surface eventually, tho in the wash up, maybe (out of respect for Justin) should be left unsaid.
This Journo sounds slimy as, imagine putting this on Tim Payne. He's got CA chest deep in himself and he loves it, I love how he says it must have been a difficult decision for Ponting to back Lange haha guy is a slimy joke, classic journo
Shallow yes, woke definitely not. They’re a bunch of pigs with no regard for women in general, Cummins ‘cider’ nickname, Tim Payne sexting female colleague, covering up Lyon’s cheating on his missus. You maybe spot on about the old fashioned values if Langer wasn’t a fan of this culture
if they have any sense the ECB should find as much money as possible e.g. cancel the 100, sack the obscenely overpaid ECB management team in order to make JL an offer he can't refuse. Trouble is he would refuse as he's a truly loyal and patriotic Aussie. One of Crickets great men. P.S. I'm a Pom
I like JL and hes a true aussie to the core but fans come to see the players and if players are not comfortable with their coach then I think coach should be replaced
What a total disgrace, cricket Australia is as bad as tennis Australia, run be people that have never played the sport and are fully corrupted by their own egos
Some of Today’s sportsmen are self entitled, over paid, immature, spoilt...........nightmares, now the pressure is on to maintain success. This said it sounds like Langer,s management style is grinding.
