Round 1: Mariners v [I was going to make a joke about their life, but life beat me to it] Scum

I am a bit surprised by the drainage.

I know it’s a lot of rain, but just drove past 2 local fields that look in better condition.

The water seems stuck where surely should keep the gradient to the sidelines where it would build up.

Sportsbet not accepting bets on the game right now

Ground like that would be a bookies nightmare. Everything goes out the window

To be fair its been so shit the last few days and particularly this arvo it probably wouldn't have made a difference. I think they went this far with it to see the Simmo farewell through, otherwise it would have been cancelled earlier I expect. Plus side, it was a pretty good size crowd for a rainy day, I'd be interested to know the gate number.

Ah well Vindaloo incoming and watch the other games instead ?

Listen we’ve to be fair, we’ve had a ton e of rain over the last 18 months, this isn’t a real outlier I don’t think, but I’ve never seen the pitch hold water like that. I can understand an expectation it might be ok, but was pretty obvious at. 5 it wouldn’t be draining.

 

[Meerkat]

So many people called this. The optimism was nice tho

Yup.
Pretty rare I’m ever right though if I’m honest.

Look at old photos pre Graham Park. The ground is built over a creek bed that runs down to Brisbane Water. Thats why it floods and wont drain

Grandchild's christening in Sydney.
Postponed during covid.
Hoping to make at least 2nd half

Cheering to be honest

 

[Big Al]

Considering they are just up the road they should try and play tomorrow afternoon. Rain supposed to stop at 9.am and i am free tomorrow.

what’s the bet they try to play the catch up game during the world cup break

100%. Simmo deserves a redo and a proper send off.

 

[Ironbark]

Tomorrow would be great, and means we don't have to squeeze a game in mid-week somewhere
