Leeds look good

[RedVee]

I'd suggest 5-10c is bloody cold, not mildish!

 

[Joker's Wild]

Yeah, in what frickin book is 5C considered "mild". That is f**kin cold

 

[roughyedspud]

stop being soft...:lol:


10c is shorts weather :lol:

 

[Harrigan]

Ask Canadians or anyone North of Carolina if 5c is cold. It hasn't got above 2c today and I've seen a heap of people wearing Tshirts.

 

[Harrigan]

stop being soft...:lol:


10c is shorts weather :lol:

Last week when it got to 10 after the cold snap we had I remember thinking my hoodie was too much :lol:

 

[Clarke]

stop being soft...:lol:


10c is shorts weather :lol:

I bet you would be complaining and take offense to be calling soft if England suddenly had a week of above 40 temperatures peeking at with a day at 47.

5 is cold, no two ways about it.

 

[roughyedspud]

a game would'nt be played if it was 40c+...that would be dangerous....playing in 5c is perfectly fine.....so stop being soft :lol:

 

[deluded pom?]

What a set of tarts. 5c cold FFS. 5c is merely nippy.

 

[Clarke]

a game would'nt be played if it was 40c+...that would be dangerous....playing in 5c is perfectly fine.....so stop being soft :lol:

Wouldn't it?

[roughyedspud]

Wouldn't it?

#nothingstopsleague

so lets get your argument straight.......you question whether a game would be played if its 40c (47c you even mentioned)...which is frankly dangerous and poses a serious health & safety question....


yet you're crying about 5c??




you sir are a moron of the highest standard :lol:

 

[Clarke]

I haven't put forward any argument.

All I have done is comment on my own personal preferences. I would much rather be in 40c+ degrees any day of the week compared to 5c or less. Nor I have stated that such game would or would not take place in above 40c conditions although NRL clubs turn the difficulty of training sessions up on those days, both physically and aerobically. Some even putting on games of their own. That along with Games being played in the snow, before cyclones and tornados around the world, it would surprise me if a little heat caused a game to be postponed. Games have taken place in the NRL at 35c, and I see very little difference between that type of conditions and above 40 of which I have completed full training works outs in both.

I will not been drawn into your little attempt to throw names around, instead I will stick to the topic being discussed.

Heatwave forces Bulldogs to cool their heels
Jan. 13, 2013, 6:40 p.m.
The recent hot weather has prompted Gunnedah rugby league officials to put the club’s opening training date back two weeks.


See your ad here
The Bulldogs were to kick off the 2013 Group 4 season tonight at Kitchener Park but now Thursday, January 31 will be the first session of the season.

All four grades will pack down on the night and officials are asking for a good representation as early-season trials are being organised against country and coastal opposition.

“The heatwave of late prompted us to put the season’s opening session back a couple of weeks, mainly for the welfare of the players,” president Ray McCoy said.

“We don’t want our key charges overheating before the season even kicks off.

BOOM!!


and im pretty damn sure NRL games have in the past had kick off times either moved to night kicks off or to another day completely to avoid searing heat...

 

[Clarke]

Try Wests Tigers, Parramatta, Penrith, Manly, Gold Coast, Brisbane.

 

[roughyedspud]

they've moved games cos its been too hot?

:?

Out of interest, what do you think is the normal core temperature of a human being?

 

[Clarke]

I wouldn't know and I wouldn't care. However, I've seen atheletes and been an athelete that's trained in above 40c conditions on more than one occasion. Properly monitored of course. I've never felt unsafe.

However what's being dicusses isn't anything along those lines. I originally stated that no body should call anyone accutomised to the harsh Australian conditions a sook, Wuss or whatever word was used because they call 5c cold of freezing instead of mild. Just as no one should call someone not accustomed to these conditions the same words if certain mild temperatures are too hot for them.

A lot of people on this site have a terrible knack of trying to turn things into something more then they are.

 

[roughyedspud]

yeah you!!!!


playing in 5c is'nt a issue what so ever!!!!

 

[roughyedspud]

god i love the internet....

heres the "queensland rugby leagues 'HEAT POLICY'"

[Clarke]

No one claimed playing in 5c was a issue. Again you aren't reading what I am saying, there is a lack of understand from you.

Don't even bother with him his comprehension is terrible, it doesn't matter how you put it he won't understand that what you are saying is that people from different climates find different temperatures bearable and unbearable.

I'm the perfect example I can take the 35c-40c heat and I'm less susceptible to the cold because of where I live in Canberra and I'm quite happy in 5c, but I find even the littlest amount of humidity unbearable. That doesn't mean that I am weak or anything like that, it just means that I live in a relatively dry environment and I'm not use to humidity and that is nothing to be ashamed of.
