[locky801]

W.A. 4/275

Marsh gone for 37

Tietjens to Marsh, no run, OUT, full ball and he looks to drive but it sneaks between bat and pad and knocks him over

[Brodlach]

Over 81.5: Haberfield to Voges, no run, OUT, reaches for the ball and drives in the air to mid off, Mennie was flat footed at first but then dove forward full stretch and held the catch just millimetres above the ground

[Brodlach]

Ronchi and Birt in ATM, this could get nasty very quickly

[mighty_tiger_79]

30mins before lunch

[Jim05]

They are over 200 up. Quick tonk after lunch and then we will be thrown in.

[Footy Smart]

Mennie just got Ronchi with a good ball and seems to be bowling very well. Birt also looks like he is batting through to lunch

[stampy]

this is reminding me a lot of our match at the waca back in january 2007, it lasted less than 2 days, we got rolled for 114 they replied with 300 and then rolled us again for 120, the embarrassing thing was that i was over there at the time and had planned to attend the 3rd days play with my bro inlaw, do you reckon i copped a heap of shit from those sandgropers

[Coach Bombay]

wouldnt read too much into mennie's 5 wicket haul...not hard when the opposition is trying to belt runs t20 style

[Brodlach]

Over 97.4: Mennie to Hogan, no run, OUT, slashes hard and gets a thick edge down to third man, Stray runs in and takes a good catch low to the ground


6 to Mennie now

Jamie Cox has just received a call to get Mennie on a plane to tassie

[Brodlach]

.Behrendorff - c:Cooper b:Mennie 4 (7 balls, 7 minutes). FOW 10/368 (99.4), 10th wicket partnership (Beer/Behrendorff) of 7 runs.

Course you wouldn't..

[valleys07]

Agreed pup....id take 7 fa under any circumstances.....and i dont think birt shouldering arms is classed as slapping.....sounds like overall he bowled a good line and got rewarded. Well bowled son.

[westcoastpanther]

We're batting....I'm watching the minimised score through my fingers
