Speedster Mitchell Johnson will continue the barrage in Perth, warns bowling coach Craig McDermott Australian fast bowlers Ryan Harris, left, and Mitchell Johnson at Adelaide Airport on their way to Perth. TEST great Craig McDermott has warned England will be pounded black and blue by reborn Mitchell Johnson as Australia's ruthless Ashes playbook unfolds in Perth. Australian fast bowling coach McDermott also revealed how Johnson's Ashes demons have been buried and "head explosions" avoided by talking about everything except cricket. Having "done the homework" and cut down skipper Alastair Cook, Australia will top and tail England by tormenting a petrified lower order at the WACA. James Anderson and Stuart Broad both endured body blows in Adelaide and there's more to follow in the third Test starting Friday. Yeah that is pretty much it. That has been our team plan," said McDermott, who endured a full throttle assault from a fearsome West Indies attack on Australia's 1991 tour of the Caribbean. We are not going to go away from that and there's not too many tailenders around that enjoy playing balls around their helmet and so be it. We just want to play good aggressive, Australian cricket and keep doing that every time we put our foot over the rope. Johnson has been a 17-wicket tour de force in the best start to an Ashes since Shane Warne took 20 wickets in 1994-95 with Australia leading the series 2-0. Johnson lit up a flat Adelaide track with 152.2km/h thunderbolts in his first over of the second Test and could yet break Shaun Tait's 161.1km/h record for fastest ball bowled by an Australian in Perth. Former England skippers Michael Vaughan and Andrew Strauss have questioned England's resolve against 32-year-old Johnson's lethal left-armers. McDermott predicted Johnson would become addicted to the sight of quivering English batsman with the bouncy WACA strip acting as red rag to Australia's raging bull. Adrenalin is the thing that will make him bowl faster and a quicker wicket. He bowled some pretty fast balls on a pretty docile wicket. That set the game up for us," said 71-Test paceman McDermott. Johnson, now with 222 wickets at 29, is a total contrast to the disconsolate figure who conceded 3/200 in the second Test of the 2009 Ashes at Lord's and was ridiculed by the Barmy Army. Head coach Darren Lehmann's "relaxed" team culture and chewing the fat over a beer with fellow bowlers Ryan Harris, Peter Siddle and Nathan Lyon have been the key to Johnson's match-winning deeds said McDermott. We talk about what is going on in every day life. It doesn't have to be cricket - if you are 24/7 your head is going to explode," said McDermott, whose reinstatement as Test bowling guru in October coincided with Johnson's resurgence. Australia batsman George Bailey has had a successful start to his Test career and he plans on ensuring he finishes the Ashes series with no regrets. He has got himself together, the 12 months out of the game has done him a world of good. McDermott said Johnson is now mentally resilient and preying upon every weakness spotted in a fast disintegrating England outfit. It is not about getting inside his head. Mitchell is in a great space at the moment, knows what he is doing, really understands his bowling," said McDermott. It's coming our wonderfully well.
