Sunday 29th March 3PM (AEDT)

Please join us on Sunday, as e-AFL makes its debut. With the real season in limbo, our teamwill recreate the truncated AFL season in a series of simulated games, in a jam-packed, action-filled series of 153 games plus a finals series.

These are simulated games, using the names of AFL players, but all teams have an equal chance. There is as much hope for Suns supporters as there is for the West Coast fans of a premiership at the end. There is no home ground advantage, and the weather conditions are random but do affect the type of game.

The sim program also gives votes towards a Brownlow Medal for each game, which will be compiled and a winner announced during finals. Hot tip: the followers have the best chance of scoring votes.

With so little else on, sit back and cheer your e-AFL team to victory.

This game is between the Gold Coast Suns and the Brisbane Lions, at Metricon Stadium, and your match poster will be Bloodied52 who will advise a broadcast time when she is ready.

The teams are as named for the real round 1, with the last 2 bench players omitted.

Decent spine.

I still want Snipper Miles in there for emotional reasons, but I’ll take your advice.

SUNS - thoughts?

Anthony Miles is no more than depth at the moment. Good luck in the NEAFL Sim champ . .

Rory Thompson over Graham any day.

Rowell needs to start. The SUNS masses demand it (all 3 of us)

And the experiment failed. Let's get Fiorini back in the middle, stat! Get Lachie 'Lady Killer' Weller back running of the HBF!

How about this?

I'm happy with that, bit of size and pace everywhere
Usually the players on the bench don’t get rotated on very much, so you tend to want your weaker players on the bench.

If you’re interested in seeing how a match sim plays out, go check this out - read on after where this link takes you.
 
As coach of the Brisbane Lions, I'd like to share my thoughts on the upcoming game:

McStay will have a breakout year.
All aboard the Payne train.
Rayner will start in the middle.
Fullarton will play round 2.
Currently tempting Hodge out of retirement.

Hodge is fat mate. Forget him.

The future is SUNNY.
