Was great to see them beat the Paupers today and now they sit in 5th position behind us on %.
Which made me think of a prediction that I made when they came into the comp in 2011..... I said that within 5 years (seasons) they would be playing in a Grand Final..... well, that'll be next year!!!!!!!!
I have a soft spot for the Suns due to family involvement with the players and club and they know that unless we are playing them, then I will barrack for them...... not sure I will if they go above us on the ladder though.
But I have also noticed that Ablett gets an awful lot of free kicks awarded to him _________________ Jacqui © Proud Pies 2003 and beyond |

And then once they win a couple of flags they will then become what the Brions are today - a JOKE!

I'm not sure that they'll play finals this year. They were very good today, but it was their first good performance since round 1 when they beat Richmond. In the meantime, they've beaten three of the worst four teams in the competition (Melbourne—just—as well as GWS and Brisbane) and been soundly beaten by Hawthorn and Fremantle. I'd have them in about 9-12 this year, at best sneaking into an elimination final. They might at a stretch be top 4 next year, but I wouldn't be expecting any premierships until 2016 at the earliest. _________________ All watched over by machines of loving grace |

I'd be happy for my prediction to be proved wrong _________________ Jacqui © Proud Pies 2003 and beyond |

won't happen
GWS v Suns grand final won't happen. Just like the St Kilda v Footscray grand final didn't happen in 1997. just like Fremantle hasn't won a flag yet. These teams will be thereabouts in the future, even a preliminary final, but the big one, forget it. |

Its one thing to make the top 8, or top 4, its another thing to play in a Grand Final. |
