This is what happens when you force a team upon a city that really doesn't embrace the sport, instead of looking elsewhere to 'less glamorous' but more genuine and rich in football history like Hobart.
Keep these videos up mate, i think your onto a winner here. Just a comment on sound quality for your consideration. It sounds like your recording in a room with bare walls or in a tiled room such as a bathroom or kitchen. Consider some sound baffles, or perhaps record in front of a curtain or something. Keep up the videos! The animations/graphics are great though, really enjoying the style, some of the images make me laugh.
Thanks for the kind words and feedback! We are pretty new to sound so any advice is more than welcome, we've made a few small tweaks to videos releasing today and tomorrow so hopefully they're noticeable. Glad to hear your'e enjoying the art and animations too! a lot of hard work goes into it all
Great video, loving the content! Keep it up! Interested to see how Ellis will go at the Suns, seems like a super positive guy - imagine it will have a good effect! Was sad to see him leave Richmond, but made sense for him.
Glad to see that the Suns are in a much better place now. They sometimes make dodgy list changes but they’re on the rise. For the Giants, I hope that their new coach and new players push the Giants back into the spotlight and to their first premiership. It is without a doubt that both clubs had an absolute shocker entering the league, but it makes me happy to see them rise. I think the Suns squad has potential and that they can possibly make the bottom half of the top 8 this season. I also think that the Giants will improve under a new coach and with a new game style. People who say that these clubs should fold seem to forget that these clubs are expansion clubs and still young. They’ve had a fair experience with decent players in their squads and I think that after making those mistakes of letting these key players go, they’ll learn from it. Don’t even get me started about their academies either, especially the Suns. Let’s just say, the future for these clubs are going to be great Awesome video mate, love the insight into the Suns and Giants ❤
Both the Suns and the GC Titans finished last in 2019 and notwithstanding their better season this year and my respect for Stewie Dew, it is hard to see long term success in an area so heavy with retired as opposed to the young families of GWS.
Just subscribed after watching multiple videos of yours, I love the format and info you provide. I want Suns to succeed, same as the Gold Coast Titans, but it's tough to see where and when they will do that.
Top work. Including Canberra as part of the Giants schedule is a positive given the ACTs rich footy history. The club should be called Canberra and Western Sydney Giants.
1:30, don't forget the 4 League teams before the titans, the basketball team before the Blaze, the Union team, the Bears where on the GC for the first five years.
I think it comes down to one word - leadership. Look at the two teams at their inception... Gary Ablett was the biggest and best name in footy in 2011 and was the face and captain of Gold Coast... but he was not a leader. He was there more to bring in profit and money as opposed to building a winning culture. He was absent from training more often then not, doing sponsorship conferences and promotions. There was really no other players on their list at that stage with leadership qualities... just a bunch of 18 year olds and some 'has been' players from an array of clubs (aka Josh Fraser and Michael Rischitelli). Also, their coaching staff were all fresh faced to the AFL. Now compare that with GWS. They landed one of the best senior coaches of all time - Kevin Sheedy and had premiership winning coach Mark Williams as a senior assistant. Straight away they had two premiership coaches to build a winning culture. They acquired seasoned footballers to complement their first gamers (Chad Cornes, Tom Scully, Phil Davis, Rhys Palmer, Callan Ward, Luke Power, Dean Brogan) and over the next couple of years they also acquired older players who found a second life at the club (Shane Mumford, Heath Shaw, Steve Johnson).
I mean do agree with you about GC leadership being their biggest issue at their inception. But I think it was less to do with the players and more to do with the structure of the club with their coaches and administrators. To be fair to Rischitelli he joined GC in 2011 after having just won Brisbane's BnF in 2010 and other players like Harbrow who has had an amazing career there, plus having Bock, Brown and Brennan definitely were solid pick ups. But I think having McKenna as the coach to begin with, with no real support, plus the club putting out in the media their plan to win a premiership by 2015 put the players under too much pressure to not only start winning, but also to grow the game in QLD. I think these choices and expectations didn't allow the club and players to naturally grow into their game and team. Then when they weren't being met by 2015, the decisions to sack the coach, then hire Eade which I feel was a terrible decision on fit, continuously put a reset to the club's growth and improvement at the time.
Honestly just looking forward to watching the Giants or Suns win a game and hearing the same roar from the crowd you get from any other club when they win
Awesome video! Wish the very best for both teams in the future and beyond, especially the Suns who have always battled, I’d hate to see them on real hard times or relocate or fold ❤️💛☀️
Interesting comparisons could also be made with Port and Fremantle, while only 6k separate them fan wise Port has the premiership they have played 30ish games less but 30ish more wins so you could say almost a 60 game ahead of freo
You left out a lot of stuff there mate. GWS had more concessions (including the mini-draft which they used to get 8 top-10 draft picks), Academy access to Riverina (which the AFL eventually removed from their zone), bigger list and salary cap over a longer peiord of time (plus COLA on top of that for the first few years), and got one of the best facilities after only a couple years, whereas Gold Coast were training out of tin sheds and demountables (with no tempature regulation in hot and humid conditions) for the first 8 years, which turned away most players they tried to atract from other clubs, and hurt the development, high performance, fitness and recovery of players already there (including kids in their academy who didn't have the same access to better facilities the other northern teams had). This meant GWS were able to build a lot of depth through high draft picks, riverina academy picks, extra money in the cap and better facilities. Gold Coast were never able to build depth cause all they really had were the picks they got when they started. Also, let's make no mistake that Jeremy Cameron (who has now left, and people think GWS' premiership window is closed solely cause he left) and Toby Greene were stars from the beginning. They relied on them just as much suns did Ablett. Also Luke Power was also inaugural captain, who was past his prime, but still a star captain. Now gold coast did make some mistakes in regards to recruiting, but it is clear that GWS were given so much they could afford to make mistakes, and Gold Coast weren't given enough.
Yeah its going to be interesting to see what happens to the suns. It just seems unsustainable to keep an AFL team up there when they could invest in other areas. Tassie devils anyone?
Tasmania deserves a afl team over Gold Coast and I find it ridiculous how people think an historic Victorian Club like Hawthorn or North Melbourne should relocate Perfect afl world would be Gold Coast going to Tasmania and Norwood and Joondalup expansion teams
for sure, with the fresh crop of talent, looks like the next few years could be make or break for the suns. Fingers crossed these youngsters can start building towards success together. While we love the idea of a Tassie team, it would be a shame for it to come at the expense of the Suns
The average crowd attendances for North Melbourne, St.Kilda and Bulldogs were 20k, 25k, and 27k respectively. That's pretty shit for clubs that have existed for over 100 years in comparison to a club that hasn't even existed for 10.
@@Iceozo1 In 2019 for Home Matches the average home crowds were St Kilda - 25,401, Western Bulldogs - 26,747 and North Melbourne averaged 20,808. The Western Bulldogs average was dragged down by playing matches in Ballarat and North's were dragged down by playing matches in Tasmania. In a Grand Final year the GWS could not even manage half what St Kilda's average was keep in mind that St Kilda has not even made the to 8 in over eight years. Lets look at the facts a decade ago we were promised that the Suns and GWS crowds would slowly improve they have not and they never will.
It should of been completely the other way round. Aussie Rules is very popular in the Gold Coast. The AFL should of taken the Southport Sharks bid which would of given administration and financial stability. The Gold Coast is a great place to live. GWS went to a die hard NRL zone to start from absolute scratch. Who wants to live in Sydney's Western suburbs??? Having Kevin Sheddy was a great move. He is passionate about AFL expansion, excellent coach. But just as importantly he had the profile (even in Western Sydney) to be the media and promotional face. And I bet he came cheaper than Gary Abblet. GWS set up a campus facility in a apartment complex so every one had a place to call home. 10 of 10 to GWS administratiors. ps having a Fat coach in Stuart Dew is unforgiveable (unless he has some serious medical condition) it sends the message to players that's OK to be lazy.
G'day Footy A2Z another great video👍. I love all these kinds of presentations. Im sure you are like me in regards that AFL is the most exciting and dynamic form of football human beings have ever invented. And it's ultimate destiny is world domination. But the game is notoriously hard to export. If the AFL were ever to expand beyond our borders how would it be done? How could this sport even get a foothold into a market like say the US? A nation that already has other huge sports to complete with? Can you do a hypothetical episode one day on a strategy of mine? It's simple really. In one word 'KIDS'. What if each and every existing AFL club picks a town or region of the United States to set up base. One that hasn't got good representation in another big league. And they introduce the Ozkick program to all the schools in the area from grade 1-5. Stick to the program for 5years. Then double down and include junior high this time for another 5 years. As the decade draws to a close the AFL would have taught thousands of children in the US the fundamentals of our game. The love of the sport will spread, those kids taught other kids and so on and so on. But because each club administrats that region on behalf of the AFL those regions become talent pool for that particular club back home. And the flow on effect is in full swing..it will take time a decade at least I reckon but the fruits it will bring will be strong and take our game to the 22nd century.. obviously there is WAY more to think about. Thats were you come in.. can you do a vid one day about this? Roast me if you want to I don't care😁👍 but I'd just love to hear other thoughts on this topic 👍Cheers once again for you excellent work. Here's a cat emoji for some reason😸
Gold coast. Too many people high up too worried about lining their own pockets and not looking after the clubs interests. Should of let Ablett go when he 1st asked, used that money to keep their top 10 draftees. Should of never appointed Rodney Eade as coach, wrong attitude for a young club. Should of realised they would have pay overs for players before all their top 10 draftees left the club.
These expansion clubs are just there for the big few to pinch and pilfer, as GWS players look to gtfo. Makes me want to spew up. Yeah I barrack for the Tiges, so it's easy to see the carpet that gets laid out for us.
The GWS have not been a Success they have lost hundreds of millions of dollars. The Gold Coast Suns crowds have been higher on average over the decade despite the fact that GWS have been more successful on the field. In their first year the Suns averaged 19,169 in a Season where they ONLY won 3 matches. That is 7,000 more than the GWS averaged in their best season where they made a Grand Final. Even in 2019 when the Suns were last and the GWS made a Grand Final the difference in average crowd was only 400 odd a match. The GWS have been a powerhouse on the field for years now but still have got a supporter base that is lower than what Fitzroy's was 38 years ago. The average home crowd for the GWS in 2019 was ONLY 12,267 this is in a year that they made the Grand Final. Fitzroy had an average crowd of 21,676 in 1982. The GWS played in a state of the art all seater Stadium while Fitzroy played in an old run down stadium that was majority standing with almost no facilities at all. Clearly the AFL have made the wrong decision letting GWS and the Suns in ahead of a Tasmanian team. Both Fitzroy and a Tasmanian team would have a higher average home crowd of 12k if they made a Grand Final. Things are not ever going to get any better for the GWS than what they are now if they can not attract a crowd in a Grand Final year god help them when they miss the 8.
If I could get drafted anywhere I'd want to go to the Gold Coast lol think of the beautiful location the beach footy isn't overly popular peaceful life

Suns are doing well this season
AFL throw shitloads of cast to West Sydney, whereas Gold Coast doesn't get attention as the AFL wants the lions to work.
DO THE DEW!!!!!
GC Suns remind me of the Detroit Lions
Except the Detroit Lions never improve. The Suns are more like the Jets this season I reckon. Used to be absolute trash but are improving
As a foundation GWS man, I want nothing more than to see the Suns succeed (maybe except our first premiership, haha).
A bit funny how Leon Cameron, Ryan griffin and Callan ward came from the bulldogs
10 years in, and the Gold Coast have a worse record than the Brisbane Bears. AFL made the same mistake twice.
Gold coast.
Too many people high up too worried about lining their own pockets and not looking after the clubs interests.
Should of let Ablett go when he 1st asked, used that money to keep their top 10 draftees.
Should of never appointed Rodney Eade as coach, wrong attitude for a young club.
Should of realised they would have pay overs for players before all their top 10 draftees left the club.
The gall of JCam.

Clearly the AFL have made the wrong decision letting GWS and the Suns in ahead of a Tasmanian team. Both Fitzroy and a Tasmanian team would have a higher average home crowd of 12k if they made a Grand Final. Things are not ever going to get any better for the GWS than what they are now if they can not attract a crowd in a Grand Final year god help them when they miss the 8.
If I could get drafted anywhere I'd want to go to the Gold Coast lol think of the beautiful location the beach footy isn't overly popular peaceful life
this is one of the 20 reasons why both these 2 clubs should not be in the AFL

The way GWS is going and wth Gold Coast showing promise this video could be reversed in the next few years
They have both Lost Hundreds of millions of dollars. They have both been distaster's.
hopefully cause i have a carton (slab) on the suns to win a flag before fremantle
Gold Coast should move to Tasmania
Welp, izak Rankine is already gone
Gold Coast have the goat tho now
SUNS WAY BETTER NOW
Theyre there for the boomers who move north from southern states,so they only have to be competitive and opposition supporters will always go.
Two words: Kevin Sheedy

Surely not after this season. They just had their best season in terms of their Win-Loss record
