How often is a day of cricket washed out? Maybe 1% if that. Point is even when it is forecast to rain, it rarely rains for more than 10-20 minute periods at a time.

The forecast i saw was Mostly Sunny, Mild. So hopefully if there is rain it'll be in the morning/arvo so it can dry out a bit before we start . .

Don't get worried Ladies & Gentlemen. When was the last time we got any consistant rain in Melbourne? It'll clear in the afternoon and be beautiful for us. :thumbsu:

Don't be soft.

It rained in the game against the lions.

Pretty sure it rained in the Essendon game (maybe both)

We played in thick fog under the dome against Carlton.

Don't be thrown off by that Adeliade thrashing, our boys can grit their teeth as much as anyone.

You talking about Ian Thorpe? hehe. Our Thorp had hip surgery last week. I just think it'd mess with our structures bringing in an olympic swimmer at the last minute. Probably needed a preseason or two.

Which will be remarkable for a night game ;)

I am crossing my fingers for good weather, Saturday is a few days away yet - so the weather predictions will change from what we hear from the BOM today.
