The very promising computer modeled map shows up 25mm rain over the south east portion of the state, with the surrounding areas receiving 10-15mm.
However, fine and dry conditions are expected to persist across far western and northern parts.
AgForce Grains president Brendan Taylor said farmers generally needed to have their winter crop planted by the start of July.
"It's not the last roll of the dice, but it's getting close," Mr Taylor said.
"There's been a fair big of both deep-planted chickpeas and wheat go in but there are also a lot of areas still waiting to get going.
"Hopefully on Monday we'll all be talking about a game changing event."
Mr Taylor said on his farm at Warra on the Darling Downs, there had only been 10mm recorded in the four months since the floods in February.
Now at least 20mm-plus falls were needed to get people into the game, he said.
