Im a Suns supporter actually.
Grew up RL mad and I played RL till i was 27.
In 2011 got interested in how the 2 NRL converts would go playing AFL.
In an attempt to convert my RL loving son to Aussie Rules (as i thought it would suit him better), i started taking him to Suns games at...
So the Cats folded.. Sad day for an old club.
They had a chance to survive and thrive by joining forces with the Eagles some 6 years ago, making a single strong club, combined volunteers, sponsors, and players. Eagles were in Div 2 with seniors and reserves but struggling with juniors. Cats...
Thats a damn shame.
However, There is room for a club west of Ipswich. There are No clubs in Gatton, Laidley, Plainland, which a club placed in around Plainlands would draw from. Must be well over 30k here people now. Huge growth of young families in this 'corridor' region.
It would be...
"Excluded...?" Oh, Youre right... A total combined 100 supercoach points in 4 of his 5 games would suggest Zekes nowhere near average...
Hes not being done any favours keeping him in the 1s when he is rarely contributing. Give him some time in the 2s to mature a bit. If Suns were winning one...

The young Hawks of 2 years ago are an example of...
I think 'the system' has a lot to answer for then. It promoted Zeke to the 1s with an absent body of work in the past 18 months, is small, slow, no x factor then gets promoted straight to the 1s,..... and his reply is under 25 supercoach points for each game he's played this year, and promoted...
I was right. By the end of 2024 suns many were wondering if the GC sport franchise failure. But they have since turned it round.

Zeke the Meek. It seems despite that his lacklustre performances, (in every trial game and comp game this year and in 2025) he has been anointed 'to inherit the earth...'
"Potential never won anything"
He may well evolve into a regular starter, but IMO is going to be a process. He isnt going to be given anything as he isnt remarkable in any areas. 'Point of difference' and 'what special do you offer' means everything when there is so much competition for all...
