Suns - Is it finally the year?
Suns - Is it finally the year?
How good was the game last night against Hawthorn. Went out to a big lead however Hawks reeled this in and even hot the front going into last quarter. As has been the case this year - and signalling their improvement - the Suns fought back and took the lead and held on to win. This was similar to last week against the Dogs - well up then Dogs came within a few points only for suns to fight back and take the win. Sitting in the 8 at this stage. - having played one less game then all others in the 8 - one would think this season is when they Suns make the eight. This should theoretically see a rise in crowds at home you would think - however gold coast is a funny place when it comes to sporting teams - so will wait and see. Next game is St Kilda i think - usually not a high drawing crowd team - but think a crowd of 16-18 thousand would be a good result. Anyway - Suns finally playing good footy - still a little inconsistency re: loss to Richmond - so will see if this can be maintained - still lots of room for improvement I think too - particularly in the forward line - If Jed Walter gets anywhere near his potential, that of a power forward who can turn a game of his own boot and ability - I say look out. Could be a home final this year which would be a massive boost for the Suns presence on the Gold Coast.

Looking good on and off field this season for the Suns.

Re: Suns - Is it finally the year?
Yes- they’ve come a long way. I think a major turning point was the new facilities they got following the commonwealth games.

they're already shitting the bed as the pressure grows
& even if they do stumble into the finals for the 1st time
It will be off the back of extra leg ups .. assistance .... gearing of this rubbish comp ...& generally not an ounce of it earnt
same as every stumbles & bumbles teams success from NSW or QLD
