Aus bowling really hasn't been very good, have been let off the hook a bit here.
The Adelaide pitch is far from a bowlers paradise, though given the fact that the kiwis were tied down by some tight bowling from the opening bowlers, that pressure should have let to the fall of a wicket or two, but credit too Guptill and McCullum here, they have played it pretty well here, by not throwing it away.

Anyone know (officially) why Clarke has been fielding at Mid Off/On today? Assuming it's something to do with his thumb?

Yeah, this. Hilf has been woefully short this series.
Yeah something that i have not been very happy with, swinging the ball is his genuine strength, i think he is under pressure to save his spot in the side, and that's probably the reason he is thinking more on lines of containment, but that's certainly not the right way to go for him.

Cricinfo is a mess.

17.1 Johnson to Guptill, 2 runs, outside the off stump. Guptill, runs it down to third man for a couple
Johnson swaps ends

15.6 Johnson to Guptill, 1 run, short on the off and middle. Guptill, gets onto the backfoot and plays it to the vacant area on the leg side to pick a single
Lol wut?
