Clint McKay had to wait until he had lost his Cricket Victoria contract before making his debut for the state, getting his chance in November 2006 when several of Victoria's fast bowlers were struck down with injuries. A 194cm fast-medium bowler and useful lower-order batsman, McKay's form vanished with his contract after a disappointing 2005-06. In an effort to get in shape, he trained with the Coburg VFL team and shed about nine kilograms. Three first-class games and six one-dayers came in his debut season, when the highlight was grabbing 4 for 42 in the Pura Cup match against Queensland and removing the top three batsmen in ten balls.
McKay, who has made two centuries for his district club Essendon, regained his state contract in 2007 and followed with another useful summer in 2007-08. His five Pura Cup outings brought 16 wickets at 24.75 and he was unlucky to be overlooked for the final after picking up seven victims in the previous match. He shone in the FR Cup, collecting a remarkable 13 wickets at 14.76 from only five games to leave him equal sixth on the competition tally.
