good
on the coast, its just flying through
not sure which way the rains are headed

Actually yeah the radar still shows plenty around, just those real intense bursts are pretty rare, I think the field can handle most normal rain

I remember in the 90s they totally rebuilt it with proper drainage, before that it was a mess

I heard this Covid can be bad. I haven't had it yet, still waiting.

The flu is worse

yeah they were doing a heap of roadwork out the front of shark park prior to the season.
I thought that was to alleviate the drainage for outer area. but since some big rains has not coped.
all good

The flu is worse

I heard 'Man flu' is worse!!! so my wife tells me

Surely Flanno could have hooked him up with something second hand

 

[Tiger Shark]

Well the road isn’t flooded as I just drove past it

The grounds never flooded when he was the coach!

Exactly, Flanno was bottling it up and trying to sell it to the Toup Kitchen

Look, it’ll be wet. But the ground will drain somewhat.

I cannot remember the last time they cancelled an NRL game so it won’t be unplayable.

The ground looks completely fine. Not a puddle or divot

Yep looks great.

Nor the dunnies

Plumbing aside, while I would like 40+ today I think it's gunna be more of a 24-16 kidna game (our way ofcourse)

The rain won't stop our points but Merge prob gunna fluke a couple

Flanno's ambush won't work though, Drags gunna get Bermuded!

 

[sharkstragic]

Apparently Kasey Badger is in the bunker for our game. ****…

 

[Gards]

Heard that Kyle Flanagan won't be claiming Shark Park as "My House" today because he prefers drier accommodation

 

[apezza]

How important is our fitness and bench today? I reckon that will be the difference.

 

[toomuchsoup]

Emptied my sportbet account for 13+ win

If we lose, it’s 100% your fault

 

[MMsharks]

all the best boys

[Sevshark]

**** someone tell the Drags camera guy to get in the front row

 

[Milkshark]

Really average last tackle kicks

 

[sharkstragic]

Hold the pill. No pens. Play smart lads
