I've read his autobiography. Feel sorry for him that he had a very early debut to his international cricket and was snubbed. He had to work real hard for opportunities in his early days as a cricketer. He worked in the Ford Car Making Factory for a bit where he worked in temperatures of 40-50 degrees celsius! It shows how determined he is.
I think he is the perfect coach to have for any team because he gets along with players so well. He is part of the boys and also brings discipline into the team. On top of that he is a humble guy.
I think when the Aussie team won the Ashes a while ago the team put a "Shrek" doll in remembrance of "Boof" as he wasn't with the team then. It goes to show how much respect he gets from everyone. Even though he wasn't with the team they still didn't forget about him.
