From memory when a council close the grounds they make those calls for the weekdays, but once the weekend hits it is handed over to the clubs to make the call at their own risk. Any damage is at their cost ( I could be wrong but as I said from memory). I would suggest the jets took into consideration that they could fix anything that happens to the ground. This is possibly how the jets where able to play and Northern calling a blanket close on Rnd 1 was why the local clubs couldn’t.
