Can't claim to know what they are doing, letting Richo look on as Gannon and Kelly give the game away.

Too little, too late, you'd think.Here he is, is there time enough left?
I'd probably agree, still always hope to see greatness in a situation like this.Too little, too late, you'd think.
Taking Green off straight after he picked up a wicket with a moving ball was mindboggling. He should have stayed on with Richardson brought on at the other endIf you could ask Neil-Smith & Silk who they'd least want to face right now they'd absolutely say Richardson, and based off his previous spell Green would probably be no.2. Instead they let the game drift.
Things have definitely fallen Tassies way this game. They’ve been absolutely nowhere near it for 3 and a half days and will end up with the chocolatesWe're really missing Paris and Morris as other genuine wicket taking options.
Reminded me of the Indian test last summer with Pant. There didn’t seem to be a whole lot of opportunities for wickets and you could see the game drifting when McDermott and Silk were in. Didn’t really look hard to bat at all for the most part and they just meandered along with little pressure. You sensed very early on that it was going to take Richardson tearing through them, but he didn’t really get much of an opportunityOn the other side, this is a good 4th innings chase by Tassie and a mature match winning knock by Silk. Neil-Smith too has looked quite composed in a potentially tricky situation and continued to tick the scoring over - not getting stuck and putting all the scoring pressure on Silk.
Granted he's (or both tbf) been helped by some queer choices for bowlers at certain times, he's still managed the situation with great composure and looked good.
Bit of a smash and grab from Tassie. The only one that really deserved it was Silk, because apart from him the only reason they were in the game was because WA was chasing the win themselvesLove declaring twice and still losing.
Green was threatening in his spell and was getting great inswing, Richardson was also great in his second to last spell.Reminded me of the Indian test last summer with Pant.

The only thing I can think of is maybe CA has given them spell/over limits? That'd be pretty frustrating if so.
And yet, we're still on top of the ladder in both the Shield and Marsh cup.FFS terrible way to lose after declaring twice
yes I have a go at Voges but this game sums up why I believe he is not the right man for the job
Agree with that.Dropped catches in the first innings, not wrapping up their first innings, not batting with enough positive intent in the second innings.
Reckon those three combined to lose us the game.
