Tommy Derickx should get the next opportunity
Not on Saturday's performance Wayno. He got thrashed from what I saw. Too early to write him off but he'd want to get a lot better...quickly

I was posted in Darwin for years and I don't recall a single day or night it wasn't hot and humid except for wet season when it was hot humid and chubby rain.

Not humid at the moment Owl, not by a long shot.  Wore a long sleeve top a few nights this week and slept under a doona each night bar one.

But it's all relative to what you're used to. For our players it was humid. BTW was it a long sleeve tiger jumper?

Yes it was actually and I also wore it home on the plane this morning.   ;D

And I agree with what you're saying about "relative to what you're used to" but I flew there from Brisbane and presently we are having cooler weather with zero (it feels like) humidity so I know I would have felt some in Darwin if there had been any significant amount in the air.  I'm not a meteorologist but my understanding is that the best conditions for dew to form (which was the principal reason for the 'slippery' conditions we saw) is a warm clear day followed by a cool night.  Humidity usually goes hand in hand with cloud cover and we didn't see a cloud in the sky up there all day Saturday.

 :lol

Have to say, I came up here in August quite a few years back and stayed in a cabin at a caravan park.  It got down to 5 degrees overnight and was bloody freezing.  Still got up to the mid/high 20's during the day (I think the kids may have even gone swimming) but from memory, the headlines at the time went something along the lines of 'almost snow'!  :lol  At least it pushed the obligatory (and daily) "man-eating animal found in city street" headline off the front page for the day.

The humidity is only high during the build up, wet season and build down.

At this time of year the only time the humidity rises is in the afternoons when the sea breeze brings in moisture off the ocean, even then it far from the stifling hell that we can get in November and December

Once the sun goes down it is cool an the humidity remains low.

Check out the weather observations for melbourne  http://www.bom.gov.au/vic/observations/melbourne.shtml and Darwin http://www.bom.gov.au/nt/observations/ntall.shtml and you will see that the relative humidity is actually higher in Melbourne than Darwin.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Leuenberger has the better of Browne in the hitouts but at least BrownE contested well all night so he should keep his spot ahead of Gus for now.

Browne is a bit of a goose but ge he tries hard. He's only 21.

Sandilands debuted as a 21 year old in 2003.
In that year he played 19 games averaged 7 disposals a game and 17 hit outs a game.

Not saying his anything likie Sandi but Sandi was rubbish in his early years. Browne just needs a biut of luck and has a big improvement curve like a Rance or Vickery net season.

He got to where the ball was when it was in a contest and that is something Graham will never be found guilty of.
