Not enough people talking about how hot it was.
I'm from Darwin, and I know heat. It was stinking on Friday. I was at the ground, and sweating away in the stands, can only imagine what it was like running on the field. On way home after the game the temp was 27C (at 11pm) and it was still humid as anything.
For sure they had an off night - didn't help when Gawn went down - but I think it was an aberration. And really, it's a reminder of what it takes to stay on top. Better to have these reminders early in the season, and store it as steel for later in the year, when it really counts.
