Three of the 10 clubs - Wodonga, Wodonga Raiders and Tallangatta - have yet to play after their first three games were washed out.

Five of the possible 15 games have been completed, with 10 draws. Last weekend's round was the only one totally washed out.

"We have a ruling that if 25 percent of the season is affected by weather or other conditions, we have the right to change the finals to a top eight," CAW chairman Michael Erdeljac said.

CAW's top grade - provincial - has a bumper schedule of 22 one-day games, so it would mean six would have to be lost to potentially enforce a revamped finals structure.

CAW has a top six format, with the lowest-ranked losers from the first week of finals bowing out.

A top six finals is run over three weekends, whereas a top eight would potentially need an extra week, although another round of Sunday matches could be slotted in to allow the season to finish as scheduled on March 27.

Easter is the following weekend, with the resurgent Ovens and Murray Football League - the region's biggest sport - to host blockbusters.

Generally speaking, over the last decade, CAW has had a good run with the weather.

However, in 2010-11, five of the first seven rounds of two-day matches were rain-affected.

Of a potential 35 results, only 15 were completed.

"We've covered this off once before, so we do have a contingency plan for this," Erdeljac said.

Rain is again forecast for Friday and Saturday, throwing round four in doubt.

"We are looking at showers and possible thunderstorms as well, although we're not expecting the rainfall totals of last weekend," Bureau of Meteorology Victorian duty forecaster Jun Chen said on Tuesday.

"Albury is expecting two to eight millimetres on Friday and the latest forecast this afternoon (Tuesday) is that we could get up to 14mm on Saturday, so it will be the wetter day."

The BOM predicted in late August a La Nina weather pattern could bring above average rainfall over spring.

And Saturday's weather will dictate whether premiers Wodonga will see Cricketer of the Year Jack Craig this season.

Craig joined Victorian Premier League outfit Melbourne over winter, but COVID-19 forced him back to the Border after just seven weeks.

The classy all-rounder will relocate to Melbourne on Sunday, allowing him one home game against North Albury in what have been the grand final re-match had the coronavirus not intervened.

The Bulldogs signed Griffith star Theo Valeri to replace Craig.
