Game Day Around The Grounds Rounds 11 - 15

[Stig O'Hara]

Chol’s nearly the 2nd best bargain trade of the year.

 

[Mattman93]

For anyone watching tonight, I'm curious - has SPS always been so slow?

I know he's never been lightning, but I always had an image in my mind of him being quick off the mark, somewhat dynamic, decent agility. Since getting on the park for us he looks one paced to the extreme. Just wondering if you notice a difference.

 

[Blue__Balls]

Sadly still unable to confirm that SPS is playing. Saw him pre game and saw him on the phone to the coach. Haven't seen him touch the ball though. Hoping that he comes good.

Literally the only player who hasn't touched the pill by qtr time.

Thought a fresh start would be good for him, but he genuinely seems worse there than he was for us.

Looks about the same I think. Has shown glimpses of good agility but this wasn’t the norm from memory.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Sunnyboys are cutting the Hawks to bits.

31 up, early in the 2nd.

 

[thylacine60]

Freo intensity is huge…that’s why they’re in front…..

Plus they have Frederick

He's a ripper.

 

[thylacine60]

More Freo supporters at the G than Dees?

Sure sounded like it. Bit early for snow.

I think that it's been a case of diminishing returns year on year .

Showed great promise early for us but went into his shell more and more rather than blossom as he found his way.

Hoped he might have really fought back once he was traded (for pretty much a bag of chips trade pick wise) but it seems to be in his mindset that the trade merely confirmed that he was a diminished footballer.

Pity because he seems to be a decent young man. Confidence appears shot and hard to see it being repaired.

He's done.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Chol gets his 3rd.

5th time this year.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Levi goes bang & the Sunnyboys are out to 46.

Could watch Hawthorn getting pumped ‘til the cows come home.

Heading for a quick exit from the league, which is sad considering he had the ability to seriously impact matches early in his career.

 

[Accidental genius]

Suns smashing hawks.

Hawks played in tassie last week....Darwin this week.

SUns being a bit more climatised to humidity probably also having an effect.

 

[lukep_86]

Suns are very hard to beat in humid conditions

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

I miss Levi

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Levi goes bang & the Sunnyboys are out to 46.

Could watch Hawthorn getting pumped ‘til the cows come home.

I rather enjoy it when Hawthorn are losing.

 

[DangerousD]

So many frees being paid, but players still conning the umps for holding the man frees, when they just drop the ball in a tackle.

[Accidental genius]

Wonder what happens to Levi when king returns.

 

[forever blue 1]

The

Crikey. Hope we win tomorrow. If not, we slip to 5th.

The sky is falling

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Combo of Freo & neutral supporters cheering....

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

I miss Levi

I bet you didn't say that 12 months ago lol

Still, bless his cotton socks, I am delighted to see him flourish up at The Suns.

It's one of those very rare divorces where both parties end up happy

Levi feels unshackled by the media and supporter expectation that I felt was burdened by the many years of great service he gave us.

It was the the right call by us cutting him loose for our own list demographic and game plan.

But yes, he is kinda cuddly and I miss having Levi around the club too

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Fat chance of Elvis Presley running out for Gold Coast anytime soon, so I would suggest Jean's (Levi) will be fine
