It will be dry for the bounce at 5:15pm at Spotless Stadium in Homebush, with some clouds watching over as the GWS Giants take on the Western Bulldogs for a spot in the AFL Grand Final.
As the first whistle blows, the players will be running around in temperatures of nineteen degrees and a dry pitch. Humidity will be around 65% so the players can't blame any fumbles on a wet ball.
By half-time the temperature is only likely to have dropped by two degrees. However, humidity will be increasing as showers loom over the western horizon. There is a good chance the game will be finished by the time any showers arrive. If they do arrive early, they will only be very light and intermittent.
Showers are due to set in from very early tomorrow morning, well after one of these two teams have earned their spot against the Sydney Swans next Saturday at the MCG.
