Radar looks fairly reasonable to me,won't be much if anything left by this arvo. So no excuse for the new range of sushi eating theatre going generation of saints fans to not be there. I want to hear some noise tonight,but the way our fans are these days I expect there to be about 10K of us there and 40 of them
Bring back the Lockett era

layers - and preparation the key
Love the rain- water storages are still diminishing
but the saints need to play everywhere-- I have been retaping some old games
dal's 50th was just a little damp- and we won that. Ok it was 4 years ago.

rain may not be a bad thing.
rain would assist the experienced players you would think and rain would be a good thing in my opinion.
even if there is no rain the conditions will still be very very soft and greasy.
i like the way you think saintbratsaintbrat wrote:layers - and preparation the key

i remember the qualifying final against Sydney at the G, was watching it bak yesterday..
the ground was wet, it showered every now and then.
we played one of our best footy for the year, Frasier kicked 6, Milne kicked 4...although finals can be unpredictable.
sydney the week before played a wet game against WC and won that, being the favourites against the saints the following week.
i guess having the help of some small players who r advantaged in wet weather, Powell, Thompson and Aussie.
well just saying, i feel confident for a wet game at the G, and to make it that carlton havent beaten us for now...8 years![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

3:30pm some four hours until start time and I'm pumped!
Four hours of leave should see the surface firm up a bit if we dont get any more rain. Just on the subject, and jonesy may have been correct with his forecast. Appears that the rain has moved over at least for now and that the surface will be dead, yet firming.
