and pitch is about what he does with it....

There is not a whole lot wrong with our heat rule at the moment. The only tweak that needs to happen is to go to the BOM website and use either the Roseworthy or Elizabeth forecast. 99.9% of people have access to the internet these days and it removes any confusion around which channel news we are supposed to watch or what happens if someone says the wrong thing.

They normally release this forecast at about 4pm and this is what the commercial tv stations use.

Personally I would prefer to have the match called off on the Friday night instead of waiting until Saturday morning. I also think it needs to be one rule for the whole comp with everyone being cancelled or everyone playing. You want to avoid a couple of captains pushing to play anddoing deals because they need the points when others have been cancelled.

Collisions between teams can be very painful...

Tru dat.
About to open a second shop, too.

Fingers crossed it's in the new racecourse development?

Yeah well Ty Stock played for us so I hardly think Woodards playing is that big of a deal. It probably doesnt help that he got dropped 3 times before he made it to 50 though...

Can anyone else picture Days sitting up there in the hills pushing pins into his little Gawler Central Voodoo doll and chanting curses to bring us bad fortune?

Yes agree, spectators on field a definitely not on and I've seen my share in another competition. However the South player who called his wife a 'f******g w****' basically to her face should not become some sort of hero out of this either. Unfortunately he probably will and its doubtful his club will deal with him at all. The whole thing wasn't a good look for football, but we can expect more of it unfortunately as the competition becomes more urbanised .

Because folks from the Barossa and Light regions are nothing but model citizens compared with those horrible dole bludgers from Gawler and the Northern Suburbs?

Not stereotyping by any chance?

Perfect results today. Gilbert Winning (nothing against Kap) and South losing , let's hope this happens a couple more times this year , so that the "big fishes" in little ponds can have another good year next year.

On another note Freeling V Ango in the One day final for 3rd yeR in a row ... Should be a cracker, freeling have wood over Ango at moment, but anyone's game.

Reports that Hannun did a calf today, opens the door, gives Ango a chance as i reckon he averages about 350 against them.

Still managed to pull off a direct hit runout from about 40 meters after moving like a statue for the previous 30 overs!

There has been a fair bit of discussion on here and also at the junior meeting last night about reviewing the heat policy in the BLCA and I had noticed that a lot of the discussion has been anecdotal with people saying stuff like "its always hotter here" but not backing it up with facts.

I had a few spare minutes at work and was able to get some information off the BOM website and thought it would be a good idea to compare the Elizabeth and Nuri temps so we can see what we are actually dealing with. The attachment is a comparison of daily recorded maximum temperatures at Nuri and Elizabeth from Jan 2014 to present.

It does look as though Elizabeth tends to be slightly warmer than Nuri, especially when the temperature gets up towards 40 degrees.

If people think this sort of thing is useful maybe we could get this data for Roseworthy as well and may be the forecast information as well to compare?

If we are going to review the rule then we should do it properly and look at the facts!

There is parking next door or in the streets around the Dog Track. Can also get the train which stops right next door...
