How's the weather BP? Pouring in CLG

Bloody freezing cold - but not raining, yet.
Pretty dark, windy and overcast, so only a matter of time before it rains, one would think.

A late change for the Dogs with James Gowans now out of the side as well - so neither of the Twins will play in the Novita game, which is a shame, but still a great thing the club is doing.

Chad O'Sullivan was going to be dropped to the Reserves but he now retains his spot. Josh Waldhuter, Yves Sibenaler and Tom Collier come into the Bulldogs line up for the Gowans boys and Jason Sutherland.

From Sturt's perspective, Tim McIntyre is here in the stands at Playford Alive, currently watching the Reserves, so one would safely assume he will play. Josh Cubillo has been dropped and is playing now in the 2's.

Which of these teams do you think rain would favor BP?

Which of these teams do you think rain would favor BP?

Hard to say mate, especially with the Gowans' twins out of the Dogs side - their class and skill usually shines in greasy conditions.

Perhaps the Double Blues, just. That being said, it hasn't rained once, yet, and it is looking like it might stay away, for now.

rain favours centrals

Thanks BP and MT.
Let's hope the rain doesn't detract from an entertaining game of footy in any case.

rain favours centrals

So does flood, famine, pestulance, wind, lightning etc..

Here at Elizabeth, the breeze is blowing from behind the grandstand, across toward the scoreboard...

The 2 skippers meet in the middle for the toss and Jade Sheedy from Sturt wins it and the Double Blues will kick with it, to the northern end...

[Big Phil]

Paul Thomas starting on the dangerous Tim McIntyre...
