Not looking good for the weekend. Suspect quite a few grounds will be closed. Hills might have to bite the bullet, cancel the round and just get some of the mounting catch ups played on fields that are open.

The council have just closed all turf fields - GRRR With 10-15mm of rainfall expected tomorrow I think we can kiss goodbye to this rounds games. It is better off trying to play any catch up games on synthetic pitches if the opportunity arises. Another disappointing weekend. 😞

I have heard previous stories that in the late 80’s there was a season where only two rounds of football were played due to constant rain.

All that has happened is these organisations have created income streams for well connected people with their own self interest first.

I think you can add to your list the fields in the Parramatta LGA belonging to Winston Hills & North Rocks Clubs. I would be very surprised if any of their fields will be open this weekend. Most of their fields are currently closed & I don't see the situation improving.

Whispers are Bobs Boys have offered HFI to have only all Premier League to play at Bernie Mullane on the weekend, How desperate is this club? Must have a few teams just out of the finals spots.

Anyone know why only 1 field at Hills Grammar is being used? There hadn’t been a game on field 2 since the last 1 finished at 12.30 ish
