[edit] First-class career
McNamara was for over a decade an all-rounder for the NSW in Australian domestic cricket. A pugnacious competitor, when without injuries, he was always amongst the first picked for The Blues, particularly in one-day teams. As a medium pace bowler, his strength was his ability to worry batsmen with a shrewd combination of accuracy and unorthodoxy. Off a relatively short run, he combined impeccable line and length with difficult to read "change-up" balls, swing and seam.
He extended his canny ways as "a bowler who bats". Though no strokemaker, his hard working and stubborn approach to batting made him a key member of many Blues tail-end partnerships. He still jointly holds the Blues First Class tenth wicket partnership record of an unbroken 138* with Phil Alley against Tasmania.
[edit] Retirement
McNamara retired from interstate competition at the end of the 1999-2000 season.
