That's what I thought. I'm sure i've been to a game or two where exactly that has happened and it hasn't been called off, but a few friends said different so I thought i'd ask!

See, I could call you a wuss for that, G

, but I agree, some people do find it quite daunting.



I've just never been bothered by it, it's kind of like a reverse pyschology thing. Some people think the ocean is calm, or the sunshine......me, I can't think of anything calmer than standing outside in the pouring down rain, with the rumble of thunder and the lighning illuminating the sky.

I think after our game away to Leigh a few years back it was probably the worse weather Ive seen you couldn't even see the match in the second half really the rain was that and and it was thunder and lightening then and it didn't get called off, after that match, I doubt any game would get called off for weather, some man was saying its the worse weather hes seen at rugby in over 30 years and he hardly misses a game.

salford in 2005 was it?

I have been in the HJS and had to retreat to the concourse because of lightening. The game carried on regardless, but I'm just a bit scared of lightening!

Your odds of getting struck by lightning are 1 in 8,987,657

killed by lightning are 10 in 10,100
