For discussions on this match.

With Victoria having already qualified for the Final this is just a formallity for the Bushrangers but Queensland still have a chance to sneak into the final if they can notch up a win.

Vics out to keep their perfect record in tact and the bowlers to try and force the currently injured 1st choice bowlers out of the final whilst no doubt the batsmen will want to make runs against QLD to shut the arrogant bastards up :lol:

Would be good to knock QLD out and only have to take 1st innings points for it to happen, should be the flattest MCG pitch ever produced :D

Rain at the MCG most of the morning... it stopped enough to have the toss and then not long after the toss the rain has come again.

QLD won the toss and chose to bat

Play was scheduled for 11:45 but still raining now.

Mash and Cutting are the 12th man

Honestly how weak is the Shield ATM, queensland is playing for a spot in the final against Victoriania who have their 4 topline quicks out and are 6 for 106 :?

Well Hasting is pretty good with the ball he does come form NSW after all :) That Gilmour looks to be a talent as well.

Tasmania need to beat SA outright to get ahead of QLD ..

QLD will have to bowl VIC out to have any chance of winning. I'm sure VIC will be happy to grind the QLD bowlers into the ground ahead of the final next week.

VIC 1/221

Hodge and Rogers have centuries

QLD may not make the final if SA perform to their usual level of sh*tness :lol:

SA have been going well of late, probably the form team to challenge Victoria as Queensland and Tassie don't look close to them atm.

SA's batting is slowly starting to get a level that lineup should be at, but still dont think they have the bowling sorted out yet

They started well just let Tassie off the hook. George is a good talent and Haberfield is another. Just a case of getting more experience into them, add a fit and in form Tait and Bailey forms a decent attack.
