    the forecast looks pretty bad this week too - might as well call the games off now and save time

    I also heard that was consultation with clubs and the clubs chose to call it off????

    In the end, i think over the years there have been some very bad calls made by the powers on both sides, this might go down as the best..........
    Newcastle Council closed all fields in its LGA till Monday (today) 7am on Thursday, they would have communicated this to NNSWF, not sure if LMCC did the same...

    Souths Newcastle RL training on Dangar Park over the weekend maybe the closures were only ⚽️ related 🙁

    Well according to this Dangar Park was closed

    https://newcastle.nsw.gov.au/groundinfo

    Maybe Souths just ignored the council and trained anyway

    They played at #2 on the Friday. But they don’t fall under the NNSW banner. NNSW put a blanket close over all competition and trial games they are in charge of, same as the Jets youth girls who played Apia on Sunday at Speers point, whilst it was at a NNSW venue they had no control of the game went ahead or not other then if lightning was around in the day!!

    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.

    Jets 13s to 23s are registered to FNSW. Not sure how this puts the grounds into neutral zoning

    That is normally the case, however Council still reserve the right to close all grounds at their discretion, which they did on this occasion. As far as I'm aware, Lake Mac council didn't.

    Blanket closures have happened before. Did NCC jump the gun? Possibly. I note that all the C&S cricket got moved to Lake Mac grounds according to their socials. Not sure if it went ahead or not.

    The email from NCC stated that all grounds closed except for National Park No. 2 and games scheduled for that Friday night.
    It's football, not s***er!!

    Wonder if therell be a blanket closure again this week.

    They should call off each individual ground as needed. Weather guessing isnt working so well

    Should've left it, Azzurri would've been able to host youth last weekend, our fields at Gateshead dry quite quickly

    Probably the only playable ground this weekend and you have the bye.

    I won't blame Northern for the fixture, but yeah it probably is the only playable ground this weekend.

    Looked like he got the ball. Was an average quality game. Maitland were very average with a man advantage. Had nothing much going forward

    Not malicious but not great, given the state of play always going to be a red
