Anybody read the Sturat Magill podcast blowup article on the foxsports website ? o_O

The drugs have destroyed Mcgill....
They’ve released their next podcast where this Menners now looks like a flog, just going over and over the topic, trying to bait McGill.
 
Vics 222 with Sam Harper throwing away another ton with a bizarre shot to go out on 93. Tassie 4/52 in reply.

Vics in their second innings, I see this Gabe Bell bowling and think “who’s this pie chucker?”.

Bang bang and he’s got 2-0! Vics 2/10. Tis a dodgy pitch though.
 
All out 91, Harper outscored them

Fergus O’Neill keeps on putting his hand up. 14 overs 3-17.

Fergus O'Neill was 1 I mentioned earlier in this thread about someone that should come in to the Aussies test discussions, potentially even with the aim to possibly being in the Ashes squad next time in the UK.

Was a terrific performer in the County Championships last year, getting better stats than many English bowlers that are in our test side. With the age of the bowling attack and the likelihood that both Starc and Cummins will play in England, I'd think O'Neill should be challenging for that 3rd bowler spot.

Has 166 wickets at 20.1 at first class level. Can’t do much more.

Spent a pleasant afternoon and early evening at the WACA watching the women's test. Not bad, India all out for 198, that eighth wicket stand was pretty impressive. We lost a few in reply but look to be going well enough to get a first innings lead.

Never been to the WACA before, it is a nice ground, especially once the sun went down and it ceased to be so bloody hot.

Gabe Bell is an outstanding shield bowler.

Extremely underrated. If there is any movement in the pitch he will extract it.

Won the recent shield game in WA on his own.
 
Tassies never say die attitude making a good fist of the run chase.

Memory of Scott Mason will be channeled in this match.
 
Tassie still battling at 8/240 but it's not over yet - with Webster n.o. 37 along with Meredith on 11.

Come on Vics.

Lucy Hamilton in her test debut has taken 6 wickets. Being a left arm bowler gives her a good point of difference.

She comes form Bundaberg, I loved the story that when she got her first QLD contract a couple of years ago at 17yo she bought herself a tinny. Pardon the pun, but she'll make a good catch for someone. She lives in Brisbane now, so her brother is using the tinny.

I just realised the T20 final was played 3 days ago and I had no idea who won it. India btw. My care factor went from 10 to zero. I was watching all the games when it started but got fatigue then Australia got bundled out.

The NSW V TAS one day final has been rain delayed and will now be a 20 over game, a T20 I guess.
