I've read over somewhere on facebook (not by Storm) that Storm's area is most likely 140-147, meaning it's Category 4.
Not certain tho

The Kennel arranged 'selected bays' for the pre lim ? so the dogs allocation may be around that area ? Which would make your facebook info correct.

Yep, just read in a forum that they have 115-121 or there abouts. Meaning storm most likely has 140-146.

Between lack of funds, my son turning two on the Monday (birthday lunch on the Sunday for out of town relatives) and other commitments I'll be watching the game from the comfort of my loungeroom with a couple of bourbons for company.

Fingers crossed my son will be exhausted and having a snooze so I get to see the whole game uninterupted, although my cheering (hopefully no cursing) won't wake him up. :lol:

Hahahaha, I've been hunting around the house trying to find some old stickers Brian ;)

Also guys, just saw on Twitter that both the Kennel & Thundersquad bays have been allocated and are ready for tomorrow. So they'd be the official supporters bays. :-D
