The Gold Coast SunsCast is here to recap the round 7 win against St. Kilda and preview the round 8 match against Brisbane. With Thomas absent once again, Mike Brady and John discuss a tale of two halves against the Saints and whether there's anything to worry about from that first half. We (poorly) define what exactly a clearance and a hitout is in Australian football, and hand out the pod's first weekly Nostradumbass award. Is it a must win QClash this week? a should win? both!? Listen and find out what we think!

The Gold Coast SunsCast is here to recap the round 5 win against Collingwood. No Thomas this week, but Mike Brady and John talk list selections, notable injuries, and a breakout game (goal-scoring-wise) from Sunny Lappin. We discuss Anne Hatchard seeming so cool and nice, Charlie Rowbottom's inability to have a bad game, and us not being able to figure out why Alannah Welsh was omitted. Do we think the Suns will beat the Bombers? (spoilers: yes). Thanks for listening!

A weird win is still a win, and we discuss what went right for the Suns despite the normal gameplan going out the window. Thomas and John hear and rate the Collingwood and Sydney theme songs. Thomas attempts to go on an anti-surfing rant which is quickly shut down by Mike Brady. We love surfing!

The Gold Coast SunsCast is back to recap the round 1 loss against the Western Bulldogs and preview round 2 against the West Coast Eagles. Should we be sad about the 1st quarter or feed the positive by focusing on the final three quarters of the Bulldogs match? We attempt to answer that! We hand out our 3-2-1 votes, complain briefly about the Meara Girvan snub, and talk about the official arrival of Ava Usher. We also discuss whether the Suns are in the beginning of a rebuild or if the team has already been effectively rebuilt.

The Gold Coast SunsCast is back to preview the GC women's round 1 match against the Western Bulldogs. Mike Brady gives a complete prediction for team selection, and Thomas and John also give their picks for the round 1 match. John asks what a ruck is, Thomas learns he is never wrong even if his podcast attendance isn't perfect, and Mike finds yet another excuse to complain about Lauren Bella being omitted so many times last season. Mike and Thomas go through the season fixture match-by-match to make their predictions, and go to great lengths to justify how they have GC winning so many games.
