We're taking a Clicking Balls look at the Gold Coast Suns. You know, Gary Ablett Junior's team, those ones. Ok, so Rocket Eade walked in to a mess, but what did he do with it? Will Charlie Dixon and Harley Bennell affect the off field form for the team? Will a senior recruit not named Gary be worth while?Will they beat GWS to the finals?All that and more in this podcast, I guess.

In this episode we stick a fork in the Demons to see if they're done.With a 2015 campaign that saw a few leaders and stars of the future emerge for the Demons, with a strong rebuilding of club culture it looks like they can hang on to them as well.In this the last year of Paul Roos reign, we look back at the impact he has had and in what shape we think the Demons will be in when Simon Goodwin takes the helm.Have the Dees finally got the right system in place to manage their young talent?A lot of people making a big deal out of Petraccas broken toe, we think he's been managed just right and will come out this season to bolster the young Dees into consistent challengers.Has Jai Kennedy-Harris hit the weights room during the off season?Will Tom Bugg follow the lead of some team mates and find career best form in the red and blue?If the stars align, could the Dees make a solid run at that 8th spot?We also look at their ins and outs during the draft and trade season, what their best and worst wins...

We get a lesson in canonization as we trawl through the new look Saints!Fresh from spreading their wrath across the sinners in Seaford, a return home sees the Saints with a lot of optimism for the coming season (and years), and quite rightly so!With a successful recruiting and rebuilding phase, we break down why the Saints can claim to be one of the best two young lists in the AFL (Collingwood being the other).With a lot of things going right, and improving on the wrongs, no off field incidences (Carlisle doesn't count)and a media distracted by other things, the Saints are coming along just nicely.What youngsters are going to put their hand up and be leaders?Which of the recruits will lock down a backline spot?We go through the ins and outs, their best and worst performances of 2015, big games in 2016, as well as our completely pointless ladder predictions!Follow on facebook, twitter or our website to keep up to date with our releases.

Literally as in we thought they would do better until our intensive research department went through the numbers, and we had to run down our original expectations. If the Swans are to win another flag, they need to improve their win loss record against the top 8. We have no suggestions on how to do it, only observe that they are crap at doing it.All hope is not lost though Swans fans. Heeney is looking like Warrick Capper and Dale Thomas (pies version) mash up, and will generate excitement amongst the young Swannies.
