Hussey GONE!!!
Looked like it could possibly be sliding down leg, but probably taking at least some of leg stump. Can't complain about it though, we got a couple of decisions our way yesterday.

Now it could get interesting with the new ball and a new bat.

It's always been like that. There's a simple way to change it though. Timeless Test.

All out. 40 runs in front!

Great opportunity to lay a platform and set 300-350 to chase and give WA most of tomorrow to bowl the vics out!

They only have rest of today and tomorrow to secure an outright.  Need to score big runs..... quickly.  Then have a dip at bowling them out

Got three big hitters in next. not to mention they are three of the best in the country at batting full stop.

Got to start scoring, and quickly.

Victoria the so called sport capital of the world and they cant find another ground to play the Bupa Shield final on so they had to play in tasmania

134 overs left to go, 100 in front now bat for the next 40 odd and score 200, doesnt really matter if WA lose or draw, need to give themselves enough time to win.

Sad thing is I can think of a couple of grounds that would be relatively suitable in Victoria.  :-\

I am tending to agree with commentators, with a lead of 240 odd and 11 overs to go they should go hell for leather and try to score @ 10 an over until close then spend all day tomorrow bowling.

Agreed. May as well just go nuts right now.
