Toast Congratulations!

[Adelaide Hawk]

I admit, I honestly thought Gold Coast would be winless in 2011, so I was wrong, well done, and welcome to the winner's list. I like the style of play at times, and you did well getting Ablett, he's a superstar.

 

[SweetLeftFoot]

Great win. Congrats. Just a shame we have to play Port next week when they'll be all fired up.

But again, congrats!

 

[Aardvark]

Nice win guys. Many more to come, well done.

 

[tonk]

Fantastic effort, well done Sun's.

 

[Capt Haddock]

Congrats guys, great win. I'll admit I was one of the many who thought you'd go winless for the season - happy to be wrong on that count. An amazing turn-around, one of the great comebacks.

Plus, you've given cause to one of the funniest threads I've read on the team boards in a long time over on the PA board, with the "RIP Port Adelaide" thread, made all the more hilarious with the bevvy of Richmond supporters offering words (or what pass for words to Richmond supporters) of comfort and condolence. Nice work.

 

[folester41]

i was cheering for you guys more than i have cheered for my own side in the last few years.

cant imagine how you supporters would have felt.

im tipping a few more wins to come this season, the win will increase the players confidence significantly and they will become twice as good players in the space of a week.

 

[Red Gum]

Well done Suns!

A great win; really exciting match. I was edge of the seat in the final ten minutes and really barracking for you to get home even though it would screw my tipping.

Really great to see how much it meant to all the guys, young pups and hired guns both.

 

[luthor]

Gold Coast Suns....you bee-auttee!!!

Fantastic win guys

 

[fugsy]

Congratulations guys...couldn't have brought up your first win in better style.

Pure guts.

 

[mediumsizered]

Fantastic effort by the Suns. Have well & truly silenced the critics. As an ex-Gold Coast resident (I still own property on the Gold Coast) I have no doubt the AFL were right in bringing in a Gold Coast team & it won't be long until they become a big threat in the competition.

 

[Joy_Division]

Yep Congratulations and good luck for many more wins to come

 

[Drummond]

Fantastic work Suns, awesome win guys!

Made even sweeter because it was against Port!

Big stuff you to everyone who said they wouldn't win a game this year, like that was ever going to happen!

 

[Blues_FC]

Well done lads. That should be a nice confidence booster!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

That was all heart and class Suns. Even in these formative games, a little bit of belief goes a long way. I haven't seen a team smash their opposition at the stoppages like that for a long time. The pace and the class from players like Swallow and Matera were breathtaking.

I make a point of watching the Suns games each week. Quickly developing a soft spot for them living in Qld and working on the Gold Coast.

 

[Patron]

I went nuts watching that last quarter! Must have been awesome for you guys. Congratulations and welcome to the AFL!

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

Well done guys. A lot of heart! Bouncing back so well!
I apologize for saying it was insulting to port for thinking you could win. Clearly you are a better team, the tiny tiny heart we had was ripped out and torn apart by the suns. Well done again. Have some beers!

 

[SouthSwans]

Aside from the 99 Prelim, that's probably the most enjoyable non-Swans game I've ever watched, was barracking like mad for GC at the end.

Amazing comeback, what a way to get your first win, awesome stuff

Congrats

 

[couchy555]

Jeez it was fun, and against Port, almost everyones favourite team i dunno what Port did wrong for kharma but wow it must of been bad.

 

[Cuzz09]

Awesome win yesterday guys!! Congrats!!

I wasnt going to go to the game but my mate said he had a spare ticket and boy oh boy Im glad I went!!

History in the making!!

Was good to see there was probably a couple of thousand GC fans at AAMi too...

It was a weird atmosphere there yesterday and even when Port lost their fans were all just laughing and stuff saying "oh well, guess were part of history, bring out the DVD"

 

[Cuzz09]

Jeez it was fun, and against Port, almost everyones favourite team i dunno what Port did wrong for kharma but wow it must of been bad.

Cheering when Benny Cousins did his hammy in that final was one of the most un-sportsman like acts Ive ever heard...

Was cheering loudly when you guys SMASHED them in the 2007 GF - 119 baby!!

 

[stratty62]

Congratulations on an awesome win. To be 40 points down and go on to win is a great effort in any team. There are other teams that dont have a win on the board yet so you are doing ok.

Don't think you will be doing it on June 18th in Tassy though.

 

[Raggedy Man]

Great win. Just terrific to see a bunch of kids - plus a few fairly handy elders - play with so much dash. Wish Garry had talked about that rather than trotting out the old 'structures' routine.
And so nice to see Walls, Lyon and Crawford stuck back in the stupid box for another week at least.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Great win guys, well done.

I just wish i had of left my tip in the Gold Coast box rather than changing it to port an hour before game time. Id be leading the tipping.


Well done to Gaz on getting the side home and playing brilliantly when the game needed to be won.

 

[BigLeb]

Remember that one for ever. Many more to come with that group of youngsters.

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Was actually a pretty exciting game. Beautiful effort from Westoff at the end though,
