#6 Mallee bull. Mallee is an agricultural area in north western Victoria. If somebody is asked about their state of health they may well respond "as fit as a Mallee bull". Why a Mallee bull is any more fit than one from the Kimberley or the Gulf Country I have no idea. I guess author Kerry Greenwood has just adapted the cliche.
