    Is that where you live? I mentioned earlier in the week that this would seem to be a likely venue. You never know your luck in a hailstorm (as my mother would say).

    Both clubs would be pretty desperate to go home and see family, I would expect - but who knows how this will play out over the next two weeks. The stance of the other states (not NSW) makes it a tricky scheduling proposition moving forward.

    Yeah, it is. I'm pretty optimistic! I heard Harley earlier say it's his preference, noting the strong Swans support here.

    The Swans haven't played a premiership game here since 2011, which was indeed a very cold day.

    I remember that day well.... it was bitterly cold to say the least. Would be awesome to have a 15 minute trip to get to the ground however Fingers crossed they manage to have it here!
