Invasion Day Melbourne rally draws tens of thousands of protesters :
Tens of thousands of people gathered in Melbourne's CBD for an 'Invasion Day' rally on Thursday. The crowd at Federation Square - estimated by some to be up to 50,000 people - is believed to have eclipsed the number of people who attended the earlier Australia Day march along Swanston Street.

Postscript : after midnight at the Australian Open, at four-all in the hard fought fifth set, the Channel 7 commentator exclaims "Nadal draws level.". Nadal then goes on to win, and will play Federer tomorrow in the final.
