I was out in suburbia watching a game until around 1030 and was pleasantly surprised how nice the night was. Not much breeze and a couple of light showers to go along with it. The weather radar never really indicated much chance of rain either.
About the only thing that continues to let the game down is, the poor promotion on FTA tv. With no competition at all and the 25% off offer I really expected much more.
Well everyone is different i spose, but i highly doubt the majority of Melbourne would've been pleasantly surprised at how nice the night way given it was 11 degrees and rained off and on all day. More or less depending on where each individual was, you might've been in a warmer pocket or something.
The radar also musn't have shown the rain that came for much of the first half which is unusual but again i doubt that most people look at the radar either and just go by look/feel. If it's cold and been raining with dark skies above that's usually enough to indicate whether they want to stay home or go.
Also like i said, it was one of our worst drawing sides and if it was against one of our best we wouldn't even be having this conversation. The Storm aren't immune to smaller crowds against crap drawing teams and shit weather just like no other team in the comp is.
