Plus we've had the advantage of no Fink and no No Show. Disgraceful effort with the bat.

So 7 wickets between Spivs and hosting the final, and 249 runs (hosting) or less than 7 wickets (away Final) for the Viles. Very interesting final day (pre-Final) of the Shield season. Such a great competition.

Agreed. Just hope our blokes tough it out and don't disgrace the comp.

Aye, you'd never see the Tassie boys doing that.....oh.

Your blokes had to carry a Marsh. The Vix have no such excuse.

A couple of very fine Oz FC careers ended yesterday ... Hopes (who did at least represent Australia at ODI level) and Hogan (perennially overlooked for higher honours).

I suppose Hogan may yet join MacMuffin in a twilight run on the County circuit.

by horace Fri 18 Mar 2016, 09:06

Aye they join the 3rd H, Hilfy in retirement. Wonderful careers.

Will Hartley go on?

Chips really need Hartley to hang on.

Wonder if Cowan, MYTYT and Quiney will cash in their chips.

Cozzy might go too. Tho he would eat the chips.

Two maidens to start the day.

Quiney and The Walrus (remember how JC used to go on and on and on about how Cosgrove should have been chosen for Tests?) should probably move on.

You are correct sir.

by skully Fri 18 Mar 2016, 13:39

Viles 5-73 at Lunch. ShyT and God-botherer in the way of the Spivs. 53 runs in the session would indicate that survival is the sole aim of the Vomits. And it would be enough to secure an away Final for them.

by horace Fri 18 Mar 2016, 13:43

Appalling die on your knees effort.

by lardbucket Fri 18 Mar 2016, 13:49

They won't be able to hold out, blocking, for two sessions on a pitch which is occasionally keeping low (see all the lbw and bowled dismissals). Vic's only real hope is to win; they need to get a wriggle on.

Who gets into the final if there's a tie?

by skully Fri 18 Mar 2016, 14:26

The Viles are 2nd so a tie would put them through.

The God-botherer has picked this game for his one decent effort of the season. He took 5-40 in the Spivs' 2nd innings to restrict the lead to a gettable 269. Now he's batting well.

by skully Fri 18 Mar 2016, 14:44

50 partnership between ShyT and Jesus. Viles need just over 150.

by Bradman Fri 18 Mar 2016, 14:49

This points system may be a bit convoluted but it has led to an exciting finish to the season.

A farked one, but WTF.

by skully Fri 18 Mar 2016, 14:59

Huzzah!!!! Elmer gets Jesus. Viles 6-118 still needing 151.

by skully Fri 18 Mar 2016, 15:30

Viles past half way.

by horace Fri 18 Mar 2016, 15:33

The GB has had a reasonable year.
