If there's a Brisbane storm on Saturday night, will the AFL grand final be delayed?

There's little to no precedent to stop an AFL game because it is raining — or for too many other reasons to be honest — although matches have been rescheduled or postponed before kicking off.wet weather meant Essendon's plane could not landThen, in 2016, Brisbane's pre-season match against the Saints was also cancelled whenmaking the surface too dangerous.A sopping wet grand final won't do much for the spectacle, but it won't stop the game from being played.

Although, if the 2016 match between the Suns and Swans at a saturated Carrara stadium is anything to go by, it might still be quite entertaining.There have been some fairly odd reasons for matches to be delayed in AFL/VFL history., although that merely precipitated a 30-minute delay in the match between Richmond and Carlton.

No, NRL games are played no matter what the weather, even in a cyclone😊

As if having to move the AFL Grand Final from Melbourne to Brisbane isn’t bad enough (first time ever played out of Melbourne), Mother Nature is intending to go full 2020 on our parade. Go Tigers 🐯

Don't they have rain in Victoria precious footy players will get their hair wet

More importantly,if Tom Hawkins sore throat proved to be Covid,would the GF be delayed

Fill in the blank: “Queensland - beautiful one day ............. the next.

The Melbourne storm is scheduled for Sunday so we should be right ey.

That's a really embarrassing attempt a humour ABC 😏.
