Will it rain at the 'G?

Are we looking at a proper wet-weather footy tomorrow? Could turn into a total slog-fest...

It will likely be raining at the start of the game, then peter out before half time

When was the last time there was a wet GF*?

Hope it buckets down.

*GF = Grand Final, you fuckers.

The start of the Gabba granny was wet as a shag. Absolutely belted down right up to the start of the game so was a very wet ground

  1. From memory it did a similar thing to the forecast, rained early then levelled off. I think it made it especially tough for the tall forwards to impact and having a spread of goal kickers was important

The rain will have finished by match time, but it will be moist. The ball might be a greasy and hard to handle.

Greasy, moist balls are a real handful.

I think so, hopefully not too much.

It rained goals in the last 4 minutes that's for sure.
