Cheers for that. Pub first, then poncho time!
Itās not actually raining here at the stadium at the moment, for what thatās worth.
Now 7:50 KO. Apparently they can only come out 30 minutes after the last lightning strike
they have gone overboard with this stuff imoā¦feels like more games have been delayed or postponed in the past 2 years than the past 10 combined.
Just the announcement you want to hear as you take your seat
I just want to go home and sleep.
Audible groan from me when we see 5 minutes of extra time at the 90
just started pissing downā¦guess if thereās a single flash weāll have an 8:50 kick off?
The new stadium has a functional roof, yeah?
Got bored, so posted this.
You never want to see any professional suffer a serious injury.
Unless itās Archie.
In a grand final.
In front of the away end.
So the players go back into the sheds because they might be struck by lightning but the crowd keeps sitting in the stands until it is safe for the players to come back.
So Hof got half an hour or so against MV. Not even on the bench today. What the fuck?
Well no, they go back in the sheds because they need to time their warmups with the start of the game. The lightning rules are that the game is that if lightning strikes within 9km (or 10 depending on which rules you read), the game is delayed till 30 mins after the last strike, if its determined that there is a risk to stadium patrons, the stadium implements its PLP or predetermined lightning plan, basically a stadium evacuation.
Fmd Retre just grinds my gearsā¦
Heās being rested because of back tightness.
Thank you for clearing that up.
Ditto re Jubal
Retre got away with one there. Really daft challenge.
we are so dicey
