Unless Tassie make the final, hard to see him getting back in time.

5-74. ****ing woeful.
Pretty tough going when you are up against this WA side though.
It’s quality from top to bottom, with numerous players smashing down doors to try and get in.
Scores are currently about right.

We were 5-73 in our last match against bottom placed NSW as well though.
So it's as much, if not more, about our batting as it is the opposition.

I just watched Jewell's dismissal. He and Ward only had to see out a few overs last night and what does he do? Fiddles at a ball which could have been easily been left and gets caught behind.

Why does Webster always bat 7 at highest these days?

According to cricket.com.au, yes it does (for the Sheffield Shield):
Bancroft takes Shield record five catches in an innings
Play Of The Day: With five catches in slip, Cameron Bancroft equalled the Sheffield Shield record for the most catches in an innings by a non-keeper

Handscomb took 9 catches in a match as a fielder in a Shield game last year if I remember correctly. So lets hope Bancroft can get another 5 in the 2nd innings and beat that.According to cricket.com.au, yes it does (for the Sheffield Shield):
Bancroft takes Shield record five catches in an innings
Play Of The Day: With five catches in slip, Cameron Bancroft equalled the Sheffield Shield record for the most catches in an innings by a non-keeper
Edit: Pretty sure that was against Tassie too so they must enjoy doing some catching practice.

How good do we think Teague Wyllie can be? Given his age, and the fact he's getting a regular go in comfortably the best state side of the last two years, is he the most exciting young test talent in the country at the moment?

Haven't seen this level of hype around an 18 year old bat since Jason Sangha and Jake Doran. He looks very very good but there's still a large amount that can change before he truly reaches an age where we'll know if he's made it or not. The eye test is very promising though.

Definitely ticks all the boxes - solid defence for his age, bats time, can play shots to all corners. Hopefully has a better few years than Sangha and Doran had haha

Ashes 2015: Jake Doran should make Test debut at The Oval, says Stuart MacGill
The wildest Ashes suggestion you’ll hear

Maybe if we all listened to Stuey, Doran would be a Test gun right now.

One thing Wyllie needs to work on is being able to work 1s and 2s safely. Currently too much boundary or bust from the eye test
Technically Wyllie is very sound , concentration good .
Ahead of the pack at the moment only 18 yrs of age .
Could be sent to India tomorrow and technically would be okay on the turning wickets .
This Tassie wicket a batting paradise compared fo India right now though .
