(1 minute) Amazing!! - SUNS in the Media

[Basssman]

I think some memberships dropped. Mine is about 30% cheaper

I have had a family 2+4 gold second tier membership for 12+ years, we just copped a 50% hike $1050 for 2025 to about $1550 for 2026

 

[Jirik13]

maybe thats why they did it. drop 1 game, back to 10 at Carrara?

Contracted 2 games in 2026.

After 2026, I imagine it goes to 1 or 0.

Keep in mind, there was a whisper around about a month ago that we were trying to sell one of the Darwin games to a Melbourne side (Richmond I think?) so we would host one Darwin game as the home side and then play there the following week as the away side. That would then allow us to have another home game at Carrara and would presumably break up the long away stretch we have in the first half of the season. So if our opening round game had been correctly scheduled to round 2 and we had traded an away game for a home game with Richmond, then our fixture would've looked like this:

R1 v West Coast @ Perth
R2 v Essendon @ PFS
R3 v Melbourne @ MCG
R4 v Adelaide @ PFS
R5 v North @ Barossa
R6 v Richmond @ PFS
R7 v Sydney @ PFS
R8 v Brisbane @ Gabba
R9 v Bulldogs @ Darwin
R10 v Hawthorn/Richmond @ Darwin
R11 v St Kilda @ Marvel
R12 v Fremantle @ PFS

That feels like a far more palatable schedule than the one we got this year. Five games at Carrara in the first 12 rounds with the Gabba game serving as a 6th opportunity for Gold Coast-based fans to see the Suns play. I'd potentially even try to switch the St Kilda and Fremantle games so the longest time we're away from SEQ is two weeks.

Losing two home games hurts us a fair bit IMO, but I think we can handle one home game being played in Darwin (for now) with the eventual goal of playing all 11 home games at PFS each year.

Summary: It's Anderson's job for a while.

Head physiotherapist Lindsay Bull has just departed the club as well, talk about an exodus. Has been with us for over 10 years

He’s taken an opportunity overseas and is being replaced by Andrew Weller coming from cricket Australia

 

[Choppers]

Is there any word on who's replacing Campbell or is Cameron going to do both?

 

[GC2015]

Would that be considered an upgrade for us? I feel like you'd have to be pretty good at your job to be a lead physio at Cricket Australia for 10+ years. Might be a sign of things to come if the rumours about us getting a BBL franchise are true.

the physio and strength and conditioning/performance team would work very closely together.

Whether it is seen as an ‘upgrade’ in reputation or not, it will be a new partnership which may take some time to align.

I imagine the assessments and physical requirements of cricket and afl are also very different which. There may be some re-calibration time.

We had a great run with injury last year. Let’s hope we maintain it.

 

[Jirik13]

I guess question is " Who will be list manager?" I doubt he would do both permanently.

Craig Cameron appointed General Manager of Football

Kall Burns list manager.

That’s a big loss. Was apparently highly regarded.

 

[TheSunGod]

He is gonna get squeezed hard, if Bailey does ask to go to the dees. Suns could even be vindictive enough to hold him again due to this imo

No need to call it vindictive, just call it well within our rights

SPREAD OUT THE SUNS​

The Suns would prefer to spread their home games more evenly across the 2026 fixture.

Last season Damien Hardwick’s side played just three games on the Gold Coast before Round 16.

Losing Opening Round due to a cyclone was unavoidable, however the Suns still felt they missed an opportunity to capitalise on their historic season by playing so few games in front of local fans while the hype was building.

Part of that had to do with the two home games in Darwin - a partnership the club will reconsider once the current deal ends, given it means playing just nine games on the Gold Coast in the regular season.

The Suns will also once again request hosting a big Victorian club during the July school holidays.

This year the Friday night game against Collingwood was the Suns’ largest drawing home crowd of the season and fourth-highest in club history.

Unfortunately don’t have the time and talent too.

I’m a big YouTube guy, it’s awesome creators like these can put this type of content together, before Matt Rowell won the Brownlow there was a big 5 year gap between highlights.

So I’ll take Nick Holman highlights any day

Touk and Sam ripping it up at Noosa Tri today

Collo has done it a few years now.
First time I've seen Touk do it.

Last year Pendlebury did it with Scott Selwood.

I beat him by about 7 minutes.


This year Touk got me by 90 seconds!

Some pics of the boys having another unofficial training run today on insta ( someone better than me might put them up). Looks like trac has made his way down from Noosa to join in.
