de Grandhomme gets Monty with a straight one.

DRS says "missing".

Oh dear.

So Paine is not the only one that stuffs up DRS

Disciplined Kiwi bowling pays off. Warner bunts a low full toss back to Wagner, who takes a beauty.

2-75.

MEW made the excellent point that with the numerous "Umpires calls" now meaning that reviews aren't lost, if you feel it's at all dodgy, then review. I think Burns lost his GPS.

Good 1st session for the Sheep.

Sheep have Smith tied down.

Aus had to work hard to get to 100 (2 down).

Another excellent 50 by Shrapnel.

The minnow basher makes a hash of a catch off Smith.

Dare I say it, Smith is looking like a mere mortal on home soil.

Yeah, but credit to the Sheep for their discipline.

Session 1 to the Kiwis, session 2 to the Aussies.

Slow but valuable 100 stand.

Top knock that!!

What a remarkable last 6 months Labuschagne has had!!

The highs and the lows.

Smith has been a victim of Warner's return to form.

Great time for a dodgy blow job.

How to turn 400 into 250.

Great day of tough Test Cricket.

Well done Shrapnel.

Big day for Travis Head tomoz.

Great knock by Lasagna. No-one else looked comfortable. Thought the Snoozies bowled and fielded well in the extreme heat and its a pity they are a man down.

The Wagner caught and bowled to rid the poc was fantastic. The ball of the day was Southee's dismissal of Weed.

Williamson marshalled the troops well and employed clever tactics against each batsman.

The other highlight was being spared yet more Bogan's Leaps from gcspoc.

I am sure, judging from people ringing SEN Radio, that a goodly proportion of Oz cricket fans would have been similarly relieved when he got out limply.

But there he was at the end of play making himself the centre of attention doing his little bow and making sure he was the first to greet Marnus at the end of play.

A bit harsh, h.

He was bowing at Labuschagne as he came down to congratulate the no.3 on his 3rd consecutive Test ton. He was gesturing on behalf and in support of Marnus.

I agree with your praise of the Snoozies' willing efforts.

The epitome of the bitter Vomit.

Phurt. I rejoice in the title. Nice to see you are the forgiving type. No doubt you feel pride in the creepy attn seeking whore. Guess that you will clamour for the poc's inclusion in the next os Test Tour

Good thing about missing the pakster tests, spared dickhead Dave's Ott crap. The 300 must have been painful horrie.

I'm no fan of Warner but in this instance he was being magnanimous towards his young star team mate, "bowing" to the skills of Shrapnel.

Fair enough but it's more fun to believe the worst. He also looked like he was going to stand his ground when caught.
