‘Severe hazards’: 33-year natural disaster first threatens to hit AFL Opening Round​

The Bureau of Meteorology has issued an update on the category two system just before 5am on Sunday, outlining its trajected path heading into the start of the AFL home-and-away season.

“Severe coastal hazards are likely for southern Queensland and northeast New South Wales (this week), the Bureau said.

“A large and powerful, to potentially damaging easterly swell as well as abnormally high tides are forecast about exposed southern Queensland beaches, possibly extending to northern New South Wales from Monday.”

Alfred’s projected arrival near Brisbane at this stage will come between Thursday and Friday morning, meaning that the opening match of 2025 between reigning premiers Brisbane and opponent Geelong could be the most affected.

A tropical cyclone hasn’t made landfall as a categorised system in south-eastern QLD for around 33 years.

Ironically, a clash between the same two sides last year in Round 6 at The Gabba was also subject to a plethora of rain, with the Cats taking out the low-scoring affair.

"I'd kick against that!" - Trent Cotchin of the Richmond Tigers recommends kicking into Tropical Cyclone Alfred.

Ridiculous idea. Let me guess, you'd call it 'Round 1' rather than 'Round 0' too? Illogical and dumb.

Hearing the AFL are desperately trying to relocate the season opener to Kardinia Park, but we've told them we don't want to be associated with the humungous FLOP that is flOpening Round. Imagine losing to a cyclone named Alfred.

What a shitehole Brisbane is…

Should have waited before I bought tickets

This is concerning for Geelong. Instead of losing by a few goals, it could blow out to 50+ points.

Turns out I’m fine.

AFL to monitor forecast as tropical cyclone looms off Queensland coast

Tropical Cyclone Alfred is forecast to hit landfall this week

www.afl.com.au

THE AFL will continue to monitor the forecast weather in Brisbane ahead of Thursday night's season opener at the Gabba, with Tropical Cyclone Alfred predicted to hit Queensland's south-east coast this week.

As of Sunday afternoon, the Bureau of Meteorology was forecasting between 7-60mm of rain in Brisbane on Thursday, with a cyclone "possible".

"Destructive wind gusts exceeding 130 km/h possible depending on movement and development of Tropical Cyclone Alfred," the BOM's forecast read.

"We will continue to monitor the situation over the coming days and be in step with Government advice," an AFL spokesperson said.

This should make getting an Uber back to Broadbeach when I’m shitfaced and melty enjoyable

Hey LOLFL and your silly flOpening Round idea.

 

[Chronz]

They'll probably postpone the game until round 3.
More importantly, it's time to sack every single campaigner mentioned on this page. Have never seen a list of such useless and overpaid sacks of shit within one organisation.

St Kilda FC says hold my Beee Chronzy

Demands to move this one to Geelong are intensifying, but with Kardinia Park set to host The Festival of Sport on the Friday we'd expect some decent compensation at such late notice. A lot to play out here, stay tuned.

Aints sealed their fate by re-hiring Lyon. Even after he left them for dead on his previous tenure.

What about their flog of a president trying to get Father/Son rule canned cause all their past players keep firing blanks in the sack ???

Lucas Camporeale already looking a top ten draft pick from last year, which I am sure annoys him even more
