Rarely broke into a sweat? I can assure you that EVERYONE at the Gabba would have broken into a more than a sweat yesterday.

It was 28 degrees yesterday. I was as prepared as I could be, yet my t-shirt was still saturated by the end of proceedings.

Still Brisbane is my favourite away trip by miles. The Gabba is the best ground in footy too I reckon.

All that fuss over a mere 28 degrees?

And I thought it was just a cliche that Sydney is always cold and wet!

I don't want to quibble, but there's one small factual error in the article:

This latest win improved the Swans' win-loss record against the Lions to 14-19, including 4-7 at the Gabba.

The Swans have only played the Brisbane Lions 17 times for an 8-9 record (4-4 at the Gabba). Before the merger with Fitzroy, the side from Brisbane were known as the Bears.

Makes sense.

Thanks for that.

like JF, i ran to the back of the grandstand at all breaks to cool down. i think most of that end of the field did too.
