How can you expect players to perform in a ball handling sport when the temperature with wind chill is expected to be -8 degrees.

Small crowd now its on Sky.I have a feeling the club will regret this decision.'"
The stadium is an enclosed bowl, what kind of winds do you expect at ground level?
I mean players have managed to play good rugby and be safe in far worse conditions and not even that long ago never mind when it was winter rugby. I don't remember any players getting hypothermia back then ... unless you are stood still and not doing your job properly.
