Qld teams look for in the afl for sure - always happy for one of them to win the flag if the Swans look unlikely (which seems to be the case this season, already)

Yeah the Swans have been my team since I first started watching the game & the Suns are my adopted team since they were formed.

Take that Perth Glory! The battle for the spoon is heating up with both teams winning games recently.

First home win for 410 Days. Haha how bad a record is that.

[SB]

That’s gold. Friends of mine arranged for a group of young boys traveling from Uganda to sit in a corporate box & photos with the players etc & then they go & win for them.

[peterbread]

That must have been a great experience for them and then to get the win too.

[SB]

Yeah apparently they were pumped.

Watched the Geelong vs Hawthorn match yesterday which was a great game for a neutral. 7 points in it at the end.

GC Suns came back from 29 points down against Sydney to win by 38. We kicked 12 straights goals at one stage.

Lions v Suns should be a cracker this weekend.

Yeah they usually have the wood on us but we’ve got to be a good chance this week.

Being at the Gabba should favour the lions. I think if it was down the coast you’d have this one. I feel the lions will want to send out a message to the little team down the road that they’re still the top team especially after winning it all.

Suns will be up for it no doubt and it will be a great watch. Maybe too early in the season or even a season before they’re a genuine top team for September.

But both teams have got stacks of great young players and could be the top two for a few years to come.

Sigh - not sure we will be qualifying for the top 8 this season

Yeah history says the Lions should win it but I’m not ready to roll over just yet.

Yeah Sydney is in the transition season with a new coach ( just like we thought Liverpool were supposed to be ) and they’ve lost a lot of quality midfielders the past few seasons so it’ll take some time.

Brisbane Roar with a 2-1 away win in Gosford sees them undefeated in 4 matches.

[SB]

Sydney got dry bummed by Melbourne City 5-1. Sydney only needed a point to make top 6 but capitulated to let Adelaide claim 6th.

[peterbread]

It’s been a strange season. Teams all over the place and the new boys winning it. Brisbane finishing the season as the form team says it all. With less money in the salary cap next season it should be interesting to see what happens.
