Today’s weather forecast (Melbourne CBD, 3000): min - 16°C, max - 22°C. 25% chance of at least 1mm of rain

Emoji inspiration: I call this part of the year (the time between Boxing Day and New Year’s Day) the “never-never times” because some things are open, others are closed, some people are working, a lot not, so fuck all gets done, and if you need anything besides food or groceries, you’re basically SOL

Happy International Day of Epidemic Preparedness!

    Yeah, the crowd excitement adds quite a bit of atmosphere to the games.

    Maybe that’s also why I enjoy AFL so much.

    I also tried to get a nap in today at the last 30 mins of the test match but woke up from it because all the excitement of the wickets falling.

    So much for that nap.

      I saw a Japan v. Australia World Cup qualifier match at the MCG and I don’t remember even that crowd being so one-sided as a BBL game.

      I wonder whether this is something the league can work on? Maybe have better crowd coordination of the “away” supporters sitting together?
