I think it’s fair to say that this may not be a classic derby. Two teams well out of form.

Sticking it to Rudan would be nice though.

Assuming he starts, it’ll be Redders’ 150th appearance for us. Very fitting match for it.

I saw this on the twitter

" Due to rising Parra River and water table, Commbank Stadium couldn’t drain. The WSW vs Wellington game was cancelled.

This week we are getting 3 times more rain than that."

(the W-League game wasn’t cancelled, it was moved, but the point remains.)

If this rain keeps up, it’ll be a water polo game.

5

Come someone tell me if its off before I get 9n the train?

Classic derby game of us battering them, 25+ shots, stonewall pens denied, and them scoring from a hail mary counter attack with a defender slip or keeper howler.

I would assume this will be postponed.

Well the babe who reads the weather said we are going to have a “rain bomb”! That doesn’t sound alarmist at all

9

Sounds like a Russian weapon.

It’s so predictable. Nevertheless I will be there and optimistic until the final whistle goes.

Depends on how much it drains on Friday, which is due to be much less rain and a bit warmer.

But yeah I’m not buying tickets until the day before.

I’ve never heard Tim Bailey described in that way before

He’s also a baby by all accounts.

Lots of drips and drops across rooftops and crops.

He got very flustered over me simply saying hello on the street after a Northern Spirit game (this isn’t a euphemism, I literally said "Hi Tim as he walked in my direction) in which he MC’d. I always feel like he must have been ‘abused’ so much on the street that anyone even engaging with him, no matter the intention, was enemy no.1

I met him in the Bella Vista in Mosman one night… he was playing pool and had to use the rest WAY too often for a table of that size

18

Did they cancel this yet?

Leichhardt Oval is probably available. Just saying… :slight_smile:

I don’t know if it is relevant or necessary but if anyone wants to use my membership to get a ticket you’re welcome to message me. I don’t go to the derbies but am glad to see someone else get a ticket if they can’t any other way.
