Game Day Rd 1 Roos v GCS. Cloudy with the chance of football-7.25pm start

[Gasometer]

A slow moving Pruess has moved in from the Coral Sea. A major depression since mid 2016 has the potential to develop later this evening into Cyclone Scotts. Members are reminded to tie down loose objects and stay indoors..80 mm of tears expected. Notherly winds of 68 kmhr expected to increase to 152 kmhr during the evening. A top today of 26 degrees with 100% humidity..

Its back...the all new Game Day Thread.

If we win the toss we better kick with the wind.

Surely they can't play footy in that?

Gil forgot it was cyclone season. Oops.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Category 2 cyclone "intensifying"

170 km/h winds and 90 mm rain.

What a brilliant showcase to promote our great game in far Nth Qld.

Haha even better with the ad over it on mine:

Let’s go boys!!!!! I’m very excited to finally get the real stuff underway. Let’s get a win and show the football world what kind of talent we actually have down at North.

Weather conditions won’t be a showcase for skills so we’ll be looking for relentless pressure and ferocity at the ball.

 

[northbergs]

Fixturing laziness from the AFL. Games in Cairns should only be scheduled during winter - not the tailend of cyclone season. Disgraceful. If the game is abandoned someone’s got to be accountable for such a s**t job.

Or the tide, depending on how strong it is running!!

 

[Gasometer]

If there are electrical storms it will be called off and each team gets 2 points.

Those 2 points could allow us a Home Final come Finals.

 

[Caracas]

In all seriousness, we really need to ask the question “Why?”. Is the AFL just trolling both teams. I’d love to hear their reasoning for organising this debacle. I have never felt less inspired by a R1 game - even though LDU and Simpkin will be out there and it’s the first game in 2 years that over 50% of our list was available for selection. Mind boggling!

 

[Reagan Smash]

I'm glad our team is back playing again, even in the shithouse conditions.

But. F%$@ the AFL. Always banging on about player welfare and the fans. So lets play in tropical far Nth QLD during the wet/cyclone season so the fans and players can have a wonderful experience. Morons.

Our team and McGC's players will both have their work cut out next week.

Or a worse draft pick.

If this had happened at Trinity Grammar, the students would have turned up to school naked, I tell you! What about our culture?!

Judging by the mood and lack of posts for a round 1 thread I suspect the relentless battering by the media has finally worn many down.
