You brought the tenants in, YOU guys fix the problem!!! Turf can these days be re-laid for play at short notice. Don't be cheap, DO IT! Because if an AFL player turns his ankle & decides he wants to sue, it could get pretty nasty for you!

It's already nearly done according to the NEWS tonight.

Apparently the Swans are going to be checking the turf on Friday and then the AFL, needs the approval from the AFL for the game to go ahead, otherwise it is back to the SCG (which presents a whole new can of worms in regards to ticketing etc)

Ground staff yesterday worked all day, then last night, and will continue the job this morning to replace about 1000 square metres of diseased turf. It is expected to be done before 2pm today, only hours before the Swans train there.

While the ground will have a patchwork look, the traction and footing will be greatly improved.

Telstra Dome. Telstra Stadium. Telstra.

They all have crap products and services.

Geelong have requested that the ground be watered Saturday afternoon.

and a crap surface - the makings of an interesting nights footy - now all we need is for it to rain and a joyous time will be had by all.

Well looks like you will get your wish, from the weather forecast this morning showers developing on Saturday

It'll be on tv in your longue room. Telstra is far easier to get to for a lot of people. Please do not be so selfish. If it is too much trouble, stay away.
