[QUOTE="Dai Perk, post: 928694, member: 78552"] Good evening, friends, Quick, possibly obvious question... In baseball, when they know it’s going to rain, they tarp the field in case it passes, so they can still play the game. In international rugby, where the stakes are as high as can be, they leave the pitch open and just kinda hope it doesn’t get too bad. So the question is, wtf? How much can a tarp cost? Isn’t it worth seeing the best teams on a reasonable playing field? Or is the messiness part of the appeal? Thanks! -Dave [/QUOTE]
