Yeah, follow-on is only really worth doing if you're either

a) running out of time due to bad weather; or
b) want to swing your dick about how good you are (a la England in the 4th test of the 2005 Ashes).
The latter very nearly backfired on them too. One more half decent partnership and it would have been an extremely nasty chase in the 4th innings against Warne in that sort of mood. A huge risk in a game they had otherwise dominated completely from the start.

hints of kallis with green's action. similar height, similar build, similar pace and accuracy. could be a handy all rounder if he improves his batting.
