    The heat I'd say

    From AFL website:

    "The AFL has announced it would alter the match conditions for a number of games in this weekend's opening round of the 2008 NAB Cup, to allow for extreme weather conditions in a number of states."

    The predicted high of 26 isn't that bad. Maybe we should change the time of the demonland game on sunday to accomodate the heat then too. Will foxtel or saintsational allow us to change the time of our game on sunday then? Might get more viewers in prime time!!

    Also, by doing this - it's an attempt to stop clubs winging about the new interchange rule, in anticipation of forecasted high temperatures :rolleyes:

    Predicted temperature at the time of the change was 32 celsius. It is now predicted to be 29 c. Hopefully it will drop another degree or two and the later start will make it cooler for the players and spectators. I will be there with Whispering Jack and Mrs. Redleg.

    Sorry I have given Melbourne temperatures above. The current prediction for Geelong is 26 on Saturday.

    its because of the heat but also because there a limited interchangers and because the AFL know they have stuffed up with the rule, insted of taking the rule back and saying sorry there covering it up by taking it back an hour and saying were trying to help the clubs :rolleyes:

    What time is the replay on Sunday?

    I won't get to watch the entire match on Saturday as I have to be in the city at 6:30, so Sunday replay might be the way to go.

    Stupid AFL planning, as if you can't work out that it gets hot in February and properly schedule games to begin with :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Replay at 7am on Fox Sports 2 [Foxtel online TV Guide]

    Done, both live and the replay on Sunday morning.

    Now, why on earth would you need to tape the same game live and then on replay? Are you expecting the result to change the second time around?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
