Sorry, but cricket is the most worthless sport to watch/play, followed by golf (too watch, but not play).
There are no winners in cricket. (Oh no, I've made 999,999,998 enemies instantly.. :D)

Our top order really needs to improve. If we don't put in a strong batting performance and build a sizable lead, today's great bowling performance will have counted for nothing.

Thank god for Hussey. And the selectors wanted to drop him.

On a side note, Hughes miserably failed again. The need to blood someone new (Marsh, Klinger etc.)

I highly doubt they will drop Hughes due to the effect the last dropping had on him.
I wonder when Khawaja will get a game, looked well measured and modest in his interview today.

As long as we don't screw up even more... If we can get a lead of +300 i reckon we're safe.

100% agreed. i reckon we should be able to get 300+ lead if we dont lose any early wickets

We'll need a lead of at least 400+ to have a good chance of winning. Anyone remember South Africa chasing down 414 a few  years back at the WACA? Can't let that happen again.

Yep, 400+ just to be safe. Plenty of time left as well.
