I thought there was a simple solution that the exec of the PDCA couldve put into place with the forecast for Sunday already over 40 it shoudve been declared a one dayer on the sat, no team disadvantaged and a fair game for all.

I agree a very good idea. We could do with someone like u around our club.

It would be nice to see results for finals but you have to make player safety a primary concern. You can't ask 50 year old blokes to run around the oval all day in 40 degree heat when all the medical evidence says that's just far too risky.

They have to have a hard and fast rule applied across the comp, and it can't be subjective. And you can't change the rules because it's a final IMHO. If there were a fair way to do so then so be it but I can't think of one. It probably goes to show the benefit of finishing top 2.

For what it's worth I think the way the rule is applied is perfect. The only thing they might look at changing is the number they go on because in time it will change to 36, perhaps slowly, and perhaps one degree at a time.

isnt cricket a summer sport? if its to hot in the kitchen get out i say.. i reckon 40 has to stay.. at 36 we would only play half a season and prob not play any finals.. how would that keep people keen?

Personally, I'd play in any heat. But the time will come, whether you or I like it or not, when the heat rule will be enforced at lower and lower temperatures. And I think you'll find more people that would appeal to than you'd think. Many people don't play because of the physical toll the game can take, especially on hot days. And many clubs are seriously affected by player shortages when the days get really hot. I don't think I remember too many hot finals so I doubt we'd lose too many. I see your point, I really do, and personally I agree. But I think it's just something that will happen regardless of whether we want it or not, and many people would prefer it.

ufortunatly you are prob right..

Some good interaction between rival clubs and some interesting opinions.
