No Oppo Supporters The Sun Lounge (Suns posters only)

So will we get free access to gabba qclash to make it 11?

No, we have a right to 11 home games. The 12th QLD game will be at the Gabba. Since the Suns and Lions have both finished bottom 4 we will be in the bottom 6 fixture, which is C. 1 B team from the middle 6 and 1 A team from top 6 will be in the group that we play twice, likely to be Melbourne and Adelaide as they finished at the bottom of the top 6 and middle 6 respectively.

We need to build a social campaign/voice as a Suns supporter group to;
1. Help build members to an achievable
2. Engage in conversation/talk show feedback more regularly thru Melb’s media channels such as SEN radio

Do you listen to GCSuncast? We are trying to get over 100 regular listeners in order to get club support and access to players and coaches. Trying to battle the VIC based Social Media is futile and fails to get the message across.

- Early Brisbane game in April would be good. I need a holiday bad and that fixture can cover 2 weekends up there.
- No Geelong away game.
- Richmond and Melbourne at Metricon.
- Saints twice
- Box Hill Reserves somehow so I can see Scrimshaw finally play

Jeeezus H Weller...

Absolute savagery.

Less night games, I swear our skills drop by 50% in Metricon night games

Yep more twilight 4:35pm Saturday games.

Haven't thought much about the new zoning 6/6/6 rule changes but have some concerns..

Dew seems to be an effort / contest type of coach.
We have just recruited Miles / GHS - have a midfield made up of inside guys with average at best disposal.
IS the game going to change from the current contested arm wrestle that it is and leave us hanging?
IS it going to all be about fast ball movement, open space and 1 on 1's.

Jack Martin, Ainsworth, Ballard are probably our young guys I can best see fitting into this model of play.

OF course there will be a place for the contested guys.. but Brodie, Miller, Swallow, Lyons, Miles can we carry them all if the game style changes?

Isn’t the 666 setup only for centre bounces?

I don't actually know.
If it is just centre bounces it might not have a huge effect..
Still something to think about.

I'm sure it is

 

[kreglze]

It is just for centre bounces.

Where is the best place for new fans to access GCSuncast?
Edit: Its actually pretty easy to find

Very happy. Stupid PR stunt / junket it was for one, and secondly we just aren’t ready as a team / club to be taking it on. Concentrate on our own supporter base first.

First of all, there is a thread pinned to the top of the Forum. Otherwise, best bet is to go to YouTube, here's the link to the most recent episode.
SoundCloud is really better for those following weekly because it only retains 3 episodes at a time. Best eps have been the Cal Twomey interview, which is still relevant because he talks indepth about the Suns draft prospects both top of the draft and Academy picks, and the Sydney Win was Shane's production masterpiece - if we keep winning games like that next year, Shane's going to have a high bar.

It would not surprise me if Suns play Lions at Metricon Round 1.

Wasn’t there a Leak for round 1 fixture with suns playing freo at Optus on Sunday evening?

 

[robo_1]

Will it be 11 at metricon or 10 plus 1 in cairns?!?

Isn’t the cairns game replaced with Townsville this year?

 

[TJ Hendricks]

I like playing St Kilda round 1. Hopefully a win.

Yes,
Have to get up for it.
I will go as far to say we 'should' be favourites.

 

[gcsunsfc]

There are no markets up just yet..
But if anyone has faith in us.. there are some decent odds on offer for least wins.. by not picking us.

Wouldn’t mind betting that the least wins if the year come from some team outside that list. A Bulldogs or even a Port Adelaide

Whitecross has been delisted by Hawks, we’d be mad not to try and bring him in. Cheap, great experience, an in and under Player with a seasoned body, would provide great depth

Would be a decent pick up for us, but my understanding of his situation is that there isn't a reasonable offer the club could make that would get him to consider uprooting and moving outside Victoria.
Won't cost the Sun's anything to look into him though =)

I seem to recall a Hawthorn supporter suggesting Whitecross as a direct swap for O'Cockface during his trade
The Delusion is Great with some

I see there's two JLT games. Did they give up on AFLX?

No they had 2 last year. Same format

He’s from Brisbane, plus, he’s been delisted (hasn’t got a job) so I say he’d be keen to get a gig somewhere, particularly here. Surely we can cough up 200-250k, considering what some others are getting. He’s only 28, still has a good 3-4 years left.
