fensaddler Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 One emerging issue for this one already, the weather. Peak of 36 or 37 currently forecast, and with a late afternoon kick off, it's going to be stinking hot. I don't relish it, and I doubt the players will. APL have no record of responding by altering times, so I guess we're going to be stuck with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My weather app tells me 29, but I see that the BoM says 36.Ā Was intending to go, but will keep under review. No fun travelling to the ground when it's baking hot like that. OK where we sit high up at the Southern End, but not pleasant for anyone on the Eastern Wing.Ā But player safety must take precedence over all other considerations. Just stupid if you ask me. Hottest time of the year. Should be evening kick-off. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-02-04/a-leagues-revise-heat-policy-womens-game-goes-ahead-extreme/101905740#:~:text=Under the APL's rules%2C if,whether to postpone the match.

fensaddler Posted February 19 Author Report Share Posted February 19 Unfortunately noting that the clubs posts mentioning that this is the Pride round is already starting to attract comments from the less tolerant members of society. Mind you, they're saying they won't be there, which suits me fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 Is this an "official move" approved by the club? Last time they moved there they were decidedly offensive and people with seats nearby moved away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabbout didnāt get a look? Or Talbot, Lam, ONeill and Reis at the back. VDV, Berisha Berenguer in Midfield and then Bos, JMAC with Tilio.
