Any news on when Coopers back?

Will be a pretty intimidating batting line up with him firing

[westcoastpanther]

1/7 wicket to Cleary

Choc won the toss and chose to bowl.

Are we still a chance of making the final? I only looked at this round and saw that if we beat WA we go to 20, WA would stay on 20. If NSW beat QLD they go to 22 and QLD stay 22 and if Vis beat TAS, TAS stay on 24.

Does the next round of matches give us a chance?

Check out the NSW team. It's all over for us both and the Warriors as well.

ok done my homework, next round is

SA v TAS - SA win
NSW v WA - WA win
VIC v QLD - VIC win

Final Ladder would be - VIC 52, SA 26, WA 26, TAS 24, QLD 22, NSW 22

Have I got this right?

Other problem is NSW currently 5/140

[Rik E Boy]

LOL. You won't beat Tasmania either IMO.

maybe if the coin falls our way this might not be such a waste of a season

The coin won't fall your way but the Redbacks appear to have made progress this season which is not bad considering you lost Ryan Harris, Matthew Elliott, Darren Lehmann and Jason Gillespie. The Ferg has emerged as a genuine talent and Klinger has proven to be SA's best recruit in years.

WA 3/33. Two to Cleary, One for Haberfield.

Well said. Plenty of positives this season for SA. It's good to see some promosing youngsters given an extended run to see what they've got and to see some talented players take the next step.

[Thiele]

W.A 3/61

Cleary with 2 wickets

[RoosterMarty]

4/97 now boys.

Cleary just got his 3rd! Voges out LB for 38.

We need to knock over Towers now, he's 41*.

That is also the tea score. Not a bad session at all... and the Towers/Voges partnership was worth 70.

I originally thought it was lunch, has there been rain or something?

[Thiele]

7/180

Cleary with 3 Wickets
O'Brien with 2 Wickets
Haberfield and Christian with 1 Wicket

[Adelaide Hawk]

243. Now let's see what the batting can do.

[LBT]

WA 9 for 215 clearly with 4. No waggies please!

[Thiele]

SA 0/0 at stumps they faced 2 overs

Play was delayed by 2 1/2 hours due to the fact heavy rain yesterday and the ground was still covered in water
