Talking Footy

For a start November
Players not included in finals will not have played since late Aug or early Sept .
About 8 weeks
Then there is the RLWC held every 4 yrs in Nov
Then there is the four nations held in late Oct early Nov other years .
Only time to have it is make the byes all at once
Stand alone SOO weekend x 2
Then only one week is affected

Thanks for that. Very good points. Think we agree it needs to stand alone. Maybe shortening the season would help that.

Here at Metricon. I think it will be a record low crowd. Always looks deceptive as a lot gather under the stands in standing room but even that isn't full. It has rained all day and even the reserve grade was shorten earlier due to weather. There is a video on fox sports if anyone can be bothered. I say about 5000 and that's a stretch I think

How do you put a photo up ?

Just walking around the ground ,,, maybe 7000

no surprise. Suns have just given up. Theyre a complete rabble. Weather looks wet too which adds to the poor crowd

wow they just showed the centre circle which is totally under water. This promises to be a very dire match

Suns up. Scrappy game.

Under the stands much fuller . So this is what it is like to be at an nrl game lol. Just a joke you nrl people don't take it too seriously

I'm peroscoping if anyone interested

lol

be funny to see today's attendance roosters v tigers game in sydney ( prediction 6k

if it was not raining 15k

i have not seen the weather in sydney this bad since

that game against SHarks v souths last year..

The Gold coast had 190mm rain in the 10 hours leading up to last nights GC v Swans game. If you watched the game it looked more like swimming than AFL.

geez isn't it funny how bad weather is a legit excuse for fumbles yet it's scoffed at when RL has the same problem

its an excuse for a lower crowd, not an excuse for no crowd for heartland clubs anyway
