Suns in the Media - Part I

[Camsta]

Ive heard the same story all year. Move on. You wouldn't hear this if he wasn't getting a game.

Pretty sure Carlton de-listed Mitch Robinson and no-one talks about what a mistake they made.

Give us lachie Neale and watch how many touches our b-graders get

Burgoyne’s manager, Ben Williams, met with Suns’ officials on Tuesday on the Gold Coast to continue negotiations about the potential move.

I think the hold up is his grandchildren don’t want to move

* me. I am one step closer to giving up.

 

[TheSunGod]

No loss. If he wasn’t willing to come up here and do the hard yakka required then he’s of no use to us. Guess he didn’t want to make it to 400 games after all. No way we’ll go after him next year when he’s 38.

Can't wait for all the numpties from the 10 clubs in Victoria talking about the level playing field.....
Give us a break.
Can't even overpay in $ and years to get a 36 year old to move a family.

Thankful to willie Rioli and don puke for crushing this news story

Pyke resigned, Rioli drugs, North CEO stepped down.

We're barely a blip on the radar.

Agree, we can’t even attract the oldest guy in the league

As someone that thought it was a mistake to chase old man river I am sighing with relief

Not worried about missing out on him in terms of expected on-field output, just concerned we can't sell the vision of the future, even with a significant overpay.

We need to find our James McDonald, but unlike GHS he needs to be able to contribute on the field.

Happy Birthday to captain and best and fairest winner Wittsy. Get the boys fired up for next season!

The struggling Suns: Where it all went wrong, and how to fix it

Season 2019 was another horror year for Gold Coast, which finished bottom of the ladder. ESPN's draft expert Chris Doerre has looked at how the club with so much promise got it all so wrong, and how it might be fixed.

Nice find. thanks for posting......a lot of food for thought there and I hope our mob keep searching for our "Luke Hodge" equivalent.

Indeed. I think there's hope, there are plenty of veterans around the league to aim for. The top guys are from presently successful clubs like Cotchin, Selwood, Hurn and Pendlebury, but there are plenty of guys from lower clubs too like Boak, Gray, Mundy, JPK, Smith and Taylor.

So looks like we have sold another home game away from the Coast.

THE Gold Coast Suns will replace Melbourne as the “home’’ team when AFL premiership matches return to Darwin next year.

The Suns will fill the void with a one-off game that is expected to grow as their association with Territory football begins to intensify.

Now Suns hope to warm the hearts of Territorians with an inaugural game in the Top End next year and more in 2021.

Their eyes are on the big number of untapped talent running around in the NTFL, CAFL and the Tiwi Islands.

Their next generation academy program is expected to embrace young Territorians.

One thing annoys me about this club is that you find everything out in the media before the members are told anything by the club.. it’s like it’s a secret operations group not a football club

So 1 game every 2 years? That's not that bad. Hopefully the formal announcement will include some NT concessions. Good area to grow members.

Where'd you get that from? It says one game in 2020 and "more" in 2021.

I imagine this was a condition the AFL imposed for giving the Darwin zone to the Suns academy. But I think it's a good outcome despite losing another game on the Gold Coast. As you say it's a good area to grow a fanbase and helps bed in the connection with the academy, much as the North Queensland game does.
