Interesting the Tuna magnate over there Hagen Stehyr had apparently suggested that there has been a build up of pointers and he was expecting another attack soon and then days later this happens...
Was in 5-6 m and the three divers (not scuba) were having a practice run for a spearfishing comp to be held the following day. needless to say the comp was cancelled.
Reports that at 6pm the same day a GW was sighted off nearby Coobowie Beach about 7km north of where the attack took place.
Police have recovered the speargun and a weight belt which had tooth marks.

Guess I can't ask why were not having the same problem in SA now, Though our rates are still low.
Swum over from WA to get away from that warm water you guys have got perhaps - or just one of our residents.
MMM about 150km from where the cage diving takes place???? (conspiracy theory).
Thoughts to family, friend's and witnesses
