Transferred: As such the football component of the evening will transferred back to the Metricon Stadium precinct, however unfortunately due to the restricted access the club is not in a positon to open this to members and fans.

The drainage at the Bond AFL ground is pretty good. Directional signs are out this morning (take the left hand exit at the first roundabout on University Drive) and there should be parking around the ring road - first in better dressed. Not a lot of places to avoid the rain if that continues.

Ladder finishing position and a bit of pride on the line. Would be good to see us turn up for more than one quarter.

The smug look on his face at the photo shoot after the game, when supporters were still hurting from the loss, was enough to convince me he has checked out.

Nobody ever went for a holiday to ... Richmond.

At least four members of the cheer squad are meeting with the Prime Minister before the game; this is the Official Opening of the SUNS Elite Training & Administration Facility. Apologies to Robbo, the Sunscreamer's Skipper; Metricon can't hold up banner this week.

Mr T. is in for the Collingwood game ... G20 one week, Metricon the next.

Yes, now a member of the Suns cheer squad after many years in the wilderness. Never, ever thought of supporting Brisbane (it's a minor industrial suburb north of the Gold Coast).

It was a good afternoon for a cheer squad member. Lots of doubt but the boys got over the line. Wet Toast supporters couldn't believe we got up.

After China we needed a bye so the supporters could pick themselves up off the ground and have time to recover. Aggh! When we turn up to play it is an inspiring sight. Suns: if you want to play finals you need to win on the road - don't let us down.

The last game we played in Australia we had a mighty win. Looking forward to an away win in Alice.

Scheduling this game on Mothers Day will require some careful logistics. Needs to be lunch finished, visitors taken home, and return to base in time to watch the game.

SU 114 GC 67 Full time

A bit of rain around but still in shorts and t-shirt. Forecast: Saturday: Cloudy. Medium (40%) chance of showers, becoming less likely this afternoon. Winds S 15 to 20 km/h tending SE 15 to 25 km/h in the morning then becoming light in the evening. Daytime maximum temperatures in the low to mid...

O'Meara looked drab in brown and played that way.

Somewhat excited to meet Robbo the cheer squad skipper tomorrow. Hope we have the flags and floggers out. Last year they were still in the shed for the pre-season. Go Suns!

Are there buses running for this game?

Was a Fitzroy fan who never went to Brisbane. Spent many years in the wilderness not having to worry about September events that might clash. When I lived in Nth Fitzroy I did enjoy a cold beer and $5 steak at the front bar of the Lord Jim (the Clayton & Rendell era). Now a Suns Cheer Squad...

The cheer squad, when we are winning, is an awesome place to be. The designation of a voluntary "Skipper" to lead on game day is a step in the right direction. Identifying shirts is another good step, promoting a sense of unity. The trumpeter works and is very popular; not sure of the tune...

The lack of assigned seating in the cheer squad area is a downside of Sunscreamers membership. My two daughters prefer toward the front seats, my wife the rear (away from incoming footballs and closer to the coffee cart). My friends - one prefers an aisle seat, one other toward the front. In my...

So what exactly is a seat possession obsession?

We do need a women on the new Board. A new bunch of grumpy, crusty, old white males isn't going to take us anywhere ...

At this point in the season watch for the announcement of at least two board changes; they will have the obligatory: blah, blah, PR waffle and smiley faces all round. If they are solid Gold Coast citizens, with undoubted acumen, Big Footy fans might ask whether it is all as announced or whether...

I have the uneasy feeling our finals chances, our future membership, our occasional supporters and our standing in the eyes of the Gold Coast community have reached the tipping point for 2016. If we lose this match without a hard contest, it will be .... time to start planning for 2017.

Rocket very pissed off at the end of the game - didn't want the supporters to clap them in.

The four tipped are the new Northern GC seat yet to be established, plus Southport, Gavin and Currumbin. Hmm, what about Broadwater?

Good game; spoilt by the membership nasties (I cleaned that up) attempting to take the names of cheer squad members who haven't yet signed the 'code of conduct'. Did you notice there wasn't many people holding up the banner ... Was good to see Targetman in the last quarter ribbing the trumpet...

Surely the Prime Minister will heed good advice and not schedule a federal election for Saturday 2 July 2016? That's a home game at Metricon against St Kilda (1:40 pm start).

Temperature for the game around 22 degrees, slight wind, rain not forecast for the coast. Should be a great family night out!

House of the Rising Suns (… not by The Animals) There is a side from Paradise They’re called the Rising Suns They’ll be the ruin of many a team And the Navy Blues are one! The team is lit by golden fire I can’t believe the way The Gold Coast town is one with them Your team had … better pray...
