Expected hot weather in Broome tomorrow has forced some changes for the clash between Claremont and Swan Districts at Haynes Park.  A party of Claremont officials left Perth in driving rain only to be met by 31 degrees in Broome.  Both teams would have an extra player on the interchange bench and have ice vests when resting.  Claremont coach Ashley Prescott  said both Paul Medhurst and Michael Gardiner would line up for them.  Tigers defender Simon Nimmo said the match was important for both Clubs with Claremont maintaining it’s push for second place and Swan Districts trying to force their way into the four.
