Kenny will probably still make them play that run up and down the ground plan.


When the ball goes backwards, sideways, sideways, backwards, forward 15 metres, back 25 metres, sideways again before going forward it doesn’t matter how good your forwards are.

They do that because there is no one ahead of them when they get the ball. Could have a well structured forward line and go back to basics.

Certainly anything that walks through the doors at Alberton, prove me wrong...

Those that walk out of Alberton on the other hand, we say thanks!!


Turned the last ruckman we got into an All Australian, might do it again.


Throw enough darts


They’ve also turned an All Australian into a very ordinary player who played sanfl this year.

I agree.
Keep your forwards at home and your a chance to score.

Not with Hinkley in charge you won’t though.

That's a big call relying on Lycett.
Has only played 70 games in 8 seasons.


Falls over as often as the blokes Bradbury beat.

Agreed amber.

The forwards have already led 4 or 5 times so by the time it comes down the ground and into the fifty, the forwards are knackered and can't chase if they don't clunk it.

They are beyond a joke! There is overpaying players to meet the salary cap requirements but to then go over the salary cap... There must be some players up there getting paid massive overs

They have to pay way overs to keep or attract players. Was rumoured on SEN this morning that a kid that was only drafted a few years ago and is coming out of contract has a $400k offer to re-sign and he has told them $700k or laters.

Cap is $12.6m and clubs are forced to pay 95% of it each year, so that only leaves a $630k buffer, wouldn't be hard to exceed if not managed correctly.

Are any of us surprised the Suns are as shit as managing things off field as they are on field? Surely not....

I still don’t know why clubs are forced to pay 95% of the cap. Surely they should be able to spend what they like? And a shit club shouldn’t be forced to pay players overs just because they have to

agreed... But i also think we should go backk to when only one club could use all of their 110% of their salary cap...
