It’s something we would do when we need to lose (for picks 2/3).
If it was a win against a Richmond or Swans I’d be happy for the confidence boost it would give the players, but a win against North meh.

Suns have won 5 out of the last 7 against the Kangaroos.

Last time we played them we where close to full strength , we have half our team out due to injury while north nearly at full strength , would be a big effort to win , I can see us winning in the back half when we get some players back.

Who's going to the game?
We were actually missing at least 4 best 22 every first 5 games and then progressed to 6-9 best 22 out depending who we consider best 22. In our first game against North we were missing Wright, Ah Chee, Hanley, Lemmens. That's what pisses me most when Melbourne media write about us. Not even mentioning our injury list, 9 game away travel disaster. Lynch no decision does not help either. But they talk about decimated Eagles list - missing 4-5 best 22. North probably missing only Waite and Wood from best 22.

Gold Coast have made two changes ahead of Sunday’s match against North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium.
Will Brodie has been named for his third senior game of 2018 after showing strong form at NEAFL level in recent weeks.
SUNS coach Stuart Dew is looking forward to seeing Brodie form part of Gold Coast’s midfield unit.
“Obviously he got an opportunity a few weeks ago and then went back (to the NEAFL side) and had a really good game on the weekend,” Dew told SUNS TV.
“He’s got another opportunity to show his stuff and we’re keen to see him fit into our midfield and play well.”
The SUNS are also boosted by the return of Callum Ah Chee, with the classy utility back from a one-week absence.
Ah Chee has played at both ends of the ground this season and has started to get more time in the midfield under his belt.
“Absolutely, he’s a keen addition to the side and he’s really built some good form since coming back from injury.
“He’s been playing up the ground a bit more through the midfield.”
As confirmed on Thursday evening, Ben Ainsworth will miss Sunday’s clash with injury, while rookie Jacob Dawson has been omitted.

We need to see how he runs out games , he first game he had 2 disposals in the 2nd half and 2nd game had 3 disposals , not really up to Afl mid standed , let’s hope he’s improved.

Now that the final team is announced, who would you like to see travel as the 23rd?
Heron, Lonergan, Scrimshaw or Leslie?
Personally, I think Lonergan. If a back drops out, send Swallow forward and Holman back with Lonners on the ball. If a forward drops out, put Ah Chee up there. If a mid drops out, just shuffle the rotation.

Perhaps just hardened...AFL player is still up for debate.
Get ready for the articles about Brodie meeting with other clubs this weekend. 
Looking forward to seeing him play though. If anyone can have a sloppy day it's norf.

I agree, outside of Higgins and Brown, not much chop and overachieved early season with no injuries.
They have a very decent defence but that's not a big issue for us because we don't kick goals through our KPF's anyway

I definitely think you guys have overachieved above expectations going into the year
Have a good defence
Good inside midfield
A good FF
But lacking outside class, other options up forward
It tends to be that 2nd, 3rd, 4th forward that kills us
No Mason Wood or Jarryd Waite is massive.
Be interesting to see how it goes.
It's "You're" as in "You are"
"Your" is a possessive pronoun
If you feel the need to post on an opposition board please concentrate on your syntax

That’s what the media lead you to believe but personally I’m not surprised. It’s when you guys get your team together maybe you’ll over achieve as well .
