    Colin burgles Marnus - might have chopped on with his elbow - part of a clumsy leave, anyway.

    Crucial breakthrough when Australia were getting on top.

    Need to bulldoze on here! Get a couple more quickly!

      Little known fun fact: For the last 3 years running, Marnus has won the Springfield lookalike prize with his portrayal of Ralph Wiggum when leaving the MCG

              Wade might battle his way to a hundred, but it's hard to believe he's one of the top 6 batsmen in Australia.

              Surely Khawaja is better than him? Even a Marsh or two?

                  And Seedy G gets him - but, probably not as cheaply as we should have and needed.

                    @Toddy Some sort of double-reverse effort - but, he's pretty ordinary.

                    Now that Jeet is sidelined he must be the worst specialist bat on either side.

                      Oz homing in on 220/4, which is pretty much par - but, I think, given their attack and that we inserted them, we needed to have them significantly behind par.

                      A couple of quick wickets can change things - especially if one of those was Smith.

                        Just left ground to beat the rush. Great crowd and good watch apart from the last hour or so which dragged. Fun police came out in force the last 30 mins booting folk and taking names left and right, way over the top for what minor problems there were. Funnily enough they booted a whole group of friends who were sitting right in front of us but somehow missed the only one of their group who was actually drunk and maybe could have done with a word.

                              The instant that pundits start dribbling “the best ever Black Caps side to leave New Zealand to tour Country X” onto their keyboards - we should call off that tour immediately.

                                Aus well on top. Still really struggling with the decision to bowl first. Shows a real lack of confidence - playing Aus in Aus you go hard or go home.

                                      Kane should never be allowed to call even if we do win the toss!

                                        Stead and Williamson should be giving themselves uppercuts for persisting with Santner

                                          Too many runs, not enough wickets for the end of day one. Smith looking very comfy. If we don't get him early tomorrow, we are kinda farked. BC's need to be sharper in the field, we are not at all great at chasing down Aussie totals. Especially when their bowling attack has a lot more teeth than ours.
