Title: The new sausages .
Post by: mat073 on August 19, 2024, 10:55:33 AM: Shout out to Dimma who abandoned one sinking ship for another made of cardboard.

The Gold Coast have suffered the least amount of injuries this season for any club .

Played West Coast, North and Richmond twice

And still no September action.

I wouldn’t speak so soon. I think dimma will get Gold Coast a flag.

Post by: Diocletian on August 20, 2024, 06:10:09 PM: Just like GWS , a blind monkey should be able to coach that list to a flag....the only caveat being that the Gold Coast is the Bermuda Triangle of Australian Sport with a lifestyle that doesn't lend itself to team success...unless you're a team of iron men or surf lifesavers... :shh

Post by: Tiger Khosh on August 20, 2024, 10:39:49 PM: Talk about going the early crow. The suns are an afl fabricated club with very few true supporters, a weak culture and players who for the most part play there because they were drafted there and little else. You need way more than talent to win a flag and correcting all the other glaring issues at the club will take time.

Will Dimma turn it around? Time will tell but history is not on his side, I think only Leigh Matthews and Mick Malthouse have managed it atleast in the AFL era.

Post by: Hard Roar Tiger on August 21, 2024, 07:11:47 AM: 9 wins last year and 10 wins this year finishing 15th and 14th.
Last 10 games in both years went 3 and 7 w/l.
Very few injuries, not many excuses.

Doesn’t read well and most certainly not a new coach bounce.
