Nice mate, a good sequence that portrays the 'event' nicely. Although I don't think I approve of the Police BOTH 'buying it'
 Must be a Qld Police thing... 
The cop firing from the ground is a great shot (excuse the pun) contains emotion, fake or not! The baton runner looks a bit soft, maybe DOF to shallow? A bit od USM required. Also, maybe increase saturation to pump up the greens in his clothing and the light on the baton. You were lucky to have come through, I was hoping it would come through Bathurst, but after Sydney, it turned right, and kept going in Qld.... Oh well. 2x D700, 2x D2h, lenses, speedlights, studio, pelican cases, tripods, monopods, patridges, pear trees etc etc

I think it is a combination of that, and the fact that the photo was taken at 300mm on the 100-300, starting to get a bit soft. :S The baton went right past our front door.
