Sunny and 28c on BBC weather

I'll look again on Friday.

We're an island at the confluence of three weather systems, it could change radically in 48 hours

the p!55 heads will love it then!

bright and sunny over the east stand

black cloud and low depression over West stand

edited because I had a blonde moment LOL

As Coddy says, this can change but at the moment it's looking like a hot one, just like in 2008.

Slip, slap, slop kids.

FRIDAY, that's forward thinking

Contrary to popular Lancastrian belief, the sun doesn't shine out of Tomkins ar$e, so it should be the same for both teams on the day.

It's always summer down here in the beautiful south. Few ales and a chorus or two of Ol Faithful and we will all be happy.

Pitch level can get to 36c easy so I hope PG prepare for dehydration because it will get so hot.Maybe cold showers at half time and thin shirts created for final by Isc. Every little detail counts. Ask Bellamy at Storm , he is crazy on prep. He has Walters at the airport seeing if certain players get off the plane at Melbourne ie Inglis. He does practice based on the sun position in a game. Oh and he is possibly most modern successful coach behind Bennett but with a new start up team. So lets leave Nothing to chance. Come on you Hull

It might be me but I'm struggling to understand this bit

Walters is the asst coach and Bellamy sends him off to the airport to see which players get off the plane that lands in Melbourne - long way to come on coach lol

Hope it cools down a bit! 2008 was sweltering in that stadium, arguably the hottest i've even been in the UK

I hope we don't all pass out from sun stroke and miss Gareth Ellis lifting the cup

At least we havent got the numpty physio who had us warming up in the sun when the other side was in shade.
