Pete and Gid hold a press conference to celebrate seventy-four deliveries at St George's Park and several hours of rain, but there's enough time to laud Scott Boland, lament Nathan Lyon, and recall the maestro Barry Richards - revealing an uncanny connection to the Lalor clan.  Plus: does Gqeberha have the slowest groundstaff in the world?  Also: is there more rain on the way?
