    Stumps

    I’m away out early so i thought i would start todays stage off before i went.

    Does everyone agree its a bunch sprint finish or will someone try to grab the limelight with a breakaway.

    Will Orica try to cut down any breaks for Matthews, do they have the team to do that ? only time will tell.

    I doubt he will be looking at this but my sympathies go to Dan Martin 🙁

    Also can someone explain why Matthews got 30 points and Hepburn 20 ? i thought all the team members scored the same in a TTT.
