Almost definitely a response to issues at the Adelaide game... but I would argue that it's far far worse playing in 42 with humidity in Newcastle than 39 and dry in Adelaide.

This isn't a weather prediction for a storm in 2 days that may or may not come true. This is 3 days of extreme heat that will greatly effect the health of players and spectators if this game is played.
Calling it off early was absolutely the right thing to do so teams and spectators can plan accordingly. Rather than sitting around waiting for the inevitable.
And regardless if it's 42 degrees or 39 degrees, the quality of the football will be poor if it's played.

If it was a one off 40 plus, I might agree, but we are talking 3 days in a row over 40 away from the coast.
Teams need to travel, train and prepare in that heat - not just play the game.
Spectators are affected by the heat and I, for instance, have just been told to activate my bushfire action plan and stay home - I would miss my first game of the season.
Need to think about alot aside from the "accuracy" of weather reports.
How can anyone be pissed at calling off a game at when its feels like 900deg, except if you have spent big $ or travelled big K's. Get on the piss somewhere else
btw, SD is having a pool party instead, get in!!
Sunday now forecast for 34 degree and raining. How bout dah
Same bunch of meteorological sorcerers were claiming 45C this Sunday at the start of the week
Yep
They know what they doing
Science.. Who can trust it?...
Dunno where roundball is getting his info from.
BOM still has 35 and 5% chance of showers for Nobbys and 41 with 5% chance of showers at Wallsend.
Also - are there any sorceresses or only sorcerers?

My left nipple feels sore
I dated a chick once who had very pale skin and lots of black eye makeup so yeah pretty much they exist.
It now 7:45 pm Friday night
It still warm outside after a 40+C day
It ain't life threatening ****ing hot for fans or players
It no ****ing worse than I have experienced countless times before
FFS Socceroo last WCQ was played in worse conditions than this
The FFA need to grow a pair and tell Foxtel to **** off
The game should have been moved to an 8pm Saturday night KO
Not moved 2 ****ing ng days
Don't think for an second the Monday 8pm Bullshit is for people's welfare
Foxtel ratings are more important than anything
FFS the game would have kicked off at 530 !
Time to shut up now mate and realise you're just another fat **** on the couch. Not a professional athlete.
It all goes full circle.. to the point that all games.. should be scheduled..
830 on a Friday night and 8pm on a Saturday night. Done and dusted... (give or take for special events etc)
Games played simultaneously....
Will never happen until the FFA have the balls to stand up to Fox and say that those 2 slots produces the best football and let the consumer decide which game they want to watch.....
Amigos Aarau
hahahahhaahhahaha
because all you blokes are standing up to the man banking your cheque every week.
hahahahahahaha
good one.
smartest athlete in Australia right there Dunster.
if only the uni boffins taught the next generation how to be so smart.
Hopefully Trump can so it out.
The novelty of your angry schtick seems to have worn thin pretty quick, which happens when people suddenly realise you talk utter rubbish in every single post. Maybe throw a few more FFS's in and you'll get some fans back.
He'd be the 2nd best sports contract negotiator in Australia as well. Daniel Mullen's manager being number 1 of course.
