News 2016 AFL Season

[kreglze]

I had us 10th which would be a good season.

 

[Shai]

I think you are both wrong; potential, courage and belief carry me further. Dare to dream

Coleman: Tom Lynch
Rising Star: Peter Wright
Norm Smith: Jaeger O'Meara

At least 14 All Australians.....but I'm not telling you guys anything you don't know.

Sobering but the highest any of the experts on afl.com.au have us finishing is 11th with most in the 13th-15th range.

I'm fully confident we will finish 8th. Good first half of the season & then finish strongly in the 2nd half with Jaegar & Swallow firing. The players have the belief, that's good enough for me.

That's what I'm hoping for but (as with all teams), we'll need a lot to go right to make the eight.

 

[Sunizzle]

If Gaz plays every game, top 8. He will get them over the line in those games where they would normally fall just short.

 

[kreglze]

At home we always have a decent chance. With half a team we pushed Freo right to the siren and we drew with WC with Gaz they probably both turn into wins. If Gaz does stay fit at least until mid season where we get Swallow and O'Meara back and don't suffer anymore serious injuries we will be looking the goods. I reckon we hit 10th with 10 wins

If we beat WC and Freo we should be making top 8, shouldn't we?

At home we would always be a good chance. Away from home is where we suffer. TBH I think Freo will struggle this year, just my opinion though.

The 2016 season is about to begin and all sets of fans are always optimistic at this time of the year. The idea of the thread is simple - we discuss how our suns will get into the finals and put together potential routes to get there. We need a minimum of 12 wins to get there and I think we'll get 13 based on our draw.

I think we've got a chance against Freo, Sydney, and Richmond. Maybe even Port. Depends who turns up and who doesn't (and injuries)!

Really doesn't look unachievable but I wouldn't be confident of beating GWS both times and I reckon we could take Collingwood away

 

[Bazza37]

If the Suns can remain healthy
Then get back Swallow & Jaeger
Yes the Suns are a chance of making finals

 

[Bazza37]

Charlie Dixon will injure both his ankles
Harley will injure his calf get bored then hit the nightclubs
Zac Smith will frustrate Cats supporters
Dan Gorringe will win the best and fairest at Carlton.

Australia will absolutely suck at the Rio Olympics

I don't see us beating GWS at Spotless Stadium, let alone at home. I can't see how we beat Adelaide either. I'm a bit unsure about the Bulldogs in Cairns. So that takes us to about 9 wins by my count, with is about where I think we'll end up.

That was a pleasing little chat I'm glad I watched that

 

[kreglze]

I'm liking what I am hearing from the club. Say what you want about his on field performance, but I reckon Malceski will be invaluable for the club off field.

 

[shaqsuns]

I think by round 10 it's a strong possibility we can have 8 wins, more likely it will be 6 though

Freo are going to be so pissed when they play us next week in Perth with Sandi back, after the beating they've copped from the Bullies.

Harley having an influence on them already?
