Nasty. The only rider who is out after that is Craddock, with a cracked sternum - now that's gotta hurt...

Cracked sternum sounds well nasty.
The rider in the yellow kit looks like he comes down very heavily on his backside - surprised he didn't break anything. Anyone know who that was?

Somebody from Lotto NL Jumbo!

On bike footage of crash near the finish at Mt. Barker - Jeremy Roy:

And in case you are wondering how he managed to avoid it, he has nae idea
snap! sternum and clips
The crash is even scarier from this angle and you get more of a sense of the speed

You could have put up a warning that it was Liggett and Sherwen blabbering
There was sound?

Great win by Richie Porte, very impressive - misses the Ochre jersey by 2 secs though. Fine finish. Rohan Denis will take the win if he doesn't fall off:

Great racing. Well done Rohan Dennis for hanging in there. I guess his training for the Hour means he's more race-ready than most at this early stage of the season.
Grmay not too far off the pace but maybe a bit of a wake-up call for him about how much higher a level of racing he's at now.
Pleasing to see Jarlinson Pantano up towards the front as well.
Ruben Fernandez is not a rider I've heard of before but he looks a great prospect.

Grmay in 13th on the day. Close but no cigar.
