well a collapse of sorts.

The whole thing didn't cave in if that is what you are thinking, just the Water proofing properties of the roof collapsed allowing a torrent of water to flood the medallion club and the playing surface.

Cats v Lions cancelled on the weekend. Looking at what happened to Hawthorn and Melbourne I reckon a cancelled game isn't the worst thing that could happen during the pre-season.

It is, but it's not a hurricane sport. :shock:
