Yes should make the left come more into play perhaps. I agree - you would not want to be Commissioner Perrow for this call

Slater is probably annoyed he is not in round 5 as he loves the box

I think we all love a bit of box action

Looks like a 666er in the lineup getting a birds eye view - knew they had a good use

Pottz's advice at the Box - "make sure you do not penetrate"

Go to your Youtube settings and change it to HD.

Whilst watching the comp at the bottom right you will see 'COG' roll your mouse over this and change it to 720 HD or 1080HD and you will notice significant improvement. Sometimes your settings will auto adjust to 360p so you need to change this.

Big upset that one - think slaters wave with the small tube might have been underscored. MB deserved that last score though. Evens things up into Bells now - very tight title race.

I like how Poor old KS snap's his board free surfing after his heat..Talk about really having a bad run

Looks like the big fat bowl is going to deliver in spades on Saturday,Sunday, Monday....I love watching the Spartan and Parko surf the place...not such a happy hunting ground for KS...sure he has won a few but if its all run at Bells I would think he goes out to 4th or 5th favorite....would love to see Josh Kerr get up but I don't think the waves suits him unless they move it to Winki which suits him and KS more

Seems conditions are looking good - let see if you Victorians can really turn it on this year No pressure.
