Exactly. This is their work. It's a business trip.

It's a balance. Nobody's saying that families can't be around for the Xmas Test, but as for the other Tests...is 15 or 20 nights during the series, to much of a sacrifice to make? They're grown men, not kids who need their mum.

Anyway, getting back on topic, coaching report card.
