Our young forwards are still too small and still lack the experience of knowing how to work together to generate a reasonable score. I think having Chol and Elton as our tall forwards in the same team is too easy for the opposition to out position and out muscle. Of course our midfield was beaten too but we really were a team of babies today against an experienced top of the ladder team. I wrapped that we have given these kids a go but disappointed they didn't show more. I am a realist though and understand that with so many inexperienced players we were never going to beat a side aiming for the number one spot and a double chance at finals. We didn't have the side or the motivation to beat them.

With Prestia in the side then our midfield looks infinitely better. Cotchin, Martin & Prestia in the ruck is a starting midfield that will trouble any team in the league.

They are good tankers but they haven't got much because of it.... Tanking for 10 weeks out from the end is great work though. They are still crap, make no mistake about it.

Not sure why everyone was so surprised about yesterday.....

Because SBB had been anointed as the successor to SKH.
Blues have raced past us.

Yeah I still think he will come.
But if he changes his mind based on our recent performances that's a real indictment on the coaching staff.

Treloar all over again , no it's not the coach they offered more money, it's a pity his laptop broke during his Essendon interview
 
Dear Suns fans,

It's with a heavy heart that I inform you that it is my intention to return home to Melbourne during the trade period.

My manager, Marty Pask, and I had been as transparent as possible with the club. We wanted to make sure we kept the club up to date with my thinking and finally, once I had made my decision, we declared my intent to request a trade.

As part of those discussions we agreed, that in the best interests of the Gold Coast Suns, we would keep my intention confidential until the end of the season and I thank the club for their understanding, support and confidentiality.

I really didn't want my decision impacting the playing group and to hold up my end of the bargain I gave a commitment to see out my contract to the best of my ability.

The club has also been very clear with me and my manger that they expect an acceptable trade to be facilitated. I understand that and I also want the club that I represented with pride on 95 occasions to be compensated adequately.

I will be forever grateful to the Gold Coast Suns for not only giving me an opportunity to play AFL but to allow me to grow as a player and leader. I know I leave the club a better person than the day I walked through the door for the first time and that is a credit to everyone involved with the club.

I've been lucky enough to have played with, been coached by, and have worked with a large number of great people. To each and everyone one of them I want to say thanks and I wish them and the club all the very best for the future.

To you, the fans, who have been so supportive I say thank you. To be an inaugural player with the Suns is something I will forever grateful for and those memories of the club's first ever game, our first win, our first game here on the Gold Coast and all the hard work that has been done to set up the Gold Coast Football Club is something I will never forget.

Thank you and farewell

Dion Prestia
