He kicked the Gold Coast SUNS very first AFL major and now Charlie Dixon holds the record for the most goals in a match after the GCSUNS tall had a day to remember against the GWS Giants in Canberra today.

"It was good to get my hands on a few, and make an impact on the scoreboard."

Speaking exclusively to goldcoastfc.com.au Dixon said the Gold Coasters should have secured tightened the screws on their rivals after kicking away following a fifty point second term however had disappointingly surrendered commanding score board leads on several occasions during the encounter.

"As a team out kicking was poor today, we need to capitalise on opportunities that we are able to create during each match. The game is too hard not to take advantage of the chances you get."

It was a sweet return to a venue which caused considerable grief for Dixon in the corresponding match last season, the Gold Coast suffering a humiliating loss to the league new comers while Dixon was forced from the field after shattering his cheek bone in a sickening centre field collision.

There were no such concerns for the former Cairns junior this afternoon as he bagged a club record six goals two on an afternoon the Clubs big men truly stood tall.

"I think that working together over the last two years we have started to form a real chemistry amongst all our big boys."

"Playing ruck and forward gives you an opportunity to really impact the game and I thought I was able to to that today."

Dixon also paying tribute to skipper Gary Ablett who continually supplied Dixon with quality ball when he wasn't kicking goals himself.

Ablett finishing with 3 Goals and a game high 32 disposals.

"He's just great, you just know where he's going to put it and you really just have to make a lead and be there to receive it."
