2023 Pre Season - SAM FLANDERS HYPE THREAD

[KaySwizzle]

Pre-season Watch: Who’s dominating on the track?

Pre-season is heating up at the Gold Coast SUNS as the club begins its second week in the New Year training block.

Well, the Flanders hype-train is continuing to chug along.

And Luko is training in the forward group, as expected.

I guess with Ben Long, there is no room for Luko in the back half even though I thought that's where he played his best footy, so they think forward is his future. He'll need to get involved a lot more if he is gonna make it as a forward.

Only 6 weeks till pre season games and the Flanders4Brownlow train starts

Nah, I’m still on the Touk bandwagon. So hopefully Flanders doesn’t take too many votes off him!

I can’t see an industry wide award the SUNS players dont win.
We go 23-0, win two home finals and the granny, pick up all the team and individual awards, including somehow things like the copeland, anzac day medal and ross glendenning medal for best afield in western derby.
Gonna be that kinda year

Good to see Dewy reads BigFooty. Hope he read my AI generated story about CrabFest.

Very suspicious there is no mention of the Crab.

Hard to trust the 'reporting', tbh.

Young guns ‘raising the floor’ in pre-season​

“Working with the midfield I’m a bit biased but Sammy Flanders has come back in ripping nick. He ran a PB and is dominating training,” King continued.

“He’s almost now taking the next step into progressing into a young leader at the club.

“I’ve also been really impressed with Matt Rowell and Noah Anderson. Both highly touted, Rowelly has had a bit of an injury-interrupted career to date, but his pre-season has been exceptional.

“The way he’s training, I think he’s going to take another step forward.

“Noah, being the young leader he is, the way he controls the club already is impressive.

“We want to try help guys like Touk (Miller) and Dave Swallow to share the load a bit. Those guys played such an important part in their own development to establish themselves as regular AFL players and then that inner belief that you belong and can impact games.”

Young guns ‘raising the floor’ in pre-season

Young midfield trio Sam Flanders, Matt Rowell and Noah Anderson are among a long list of players impressing SUNS coaches on their return to pre-season training.

Training the mother****ing house down. God I love pre-season.

 

[Stroppy]

Should be a Pre-Season Training All Stars Squad named.
We would dominate!

 

[Billy ray]

I drove past Metricon Heritage Bank Stadium and there was debris and wreckage everywhere. Houses are indeed being trained down.

Jed Anderson is there but can't see Humphrey on any pictures/videos recently. And King got tattoo.

Who is the player in the background? Is Tom Lynch auditioning to come back? Nah, it's Swallow.

Humphrey on the right in pic 5. He is going to be a powerful unit, already doesn't look out of place around the older guys

I thought it was Ballard. I think you're right. Looking good!

 

[Jirik13]

It looks like most/all players are there on pictures/video, just did not see Burgess and Berry.

Suns social media team doing alot better this year, content every working day.

I've seen Hawthorn do a 25minute Day in a Life of X player, which is pretty cool. Would love that or more podcasts

I'd just like 1 or 2 vids that go longer than 15-30secs...

Given our thread title I’d hope that someone can do some photoshop magic and create some gold from this snap.

[Ben Drever]

They are some of the smallest budgie smugglers I’ve seen in a long time..

Constable looks to of really slimed down. Maybe to cover more ground.

As for Humphrey looks a unit..
Still got a bit of puppy fat on him which will burn off in no time
