There are just four days to go until the Gold Coast SUNS round one clash against Essendon at Metricon Stadium on Saturday March 26.
Match committee meetings are taking priority in the calendars of SUNS coaching staff as Rodney Eade and his assistants look to finalise their round one lineup ahead of the official announcement this Thursday evening.
Have your say - tell us who is in your Best 22!
There are so many variables when it comes to selecting a round one side, so we have decided to throw it to our fans and members to have their say on who should fit into our round one calculations.
Who do you play as our second key forward alongside vice-captain Tom Lynch? Does Sam Day get the nod or do you give 19-year-old Peter Wright first crack at locking down the position? Or perhaps you think we can play both in the forward arc?
Then which small forward will collect the crumbs at their feet? There’s Brandon Matera, Jarrod Garlett and last year’s No. 8 draft pick Callum Ah Chee all fighting for a spot.
Do you give big Dan Currie a start or does the reduced cap of 90 rotations come into your thinking?
Who starts in the engine room? What about the back six? There are plenty of questions that we’re looking for you to answer!
So, you know what you need to do. Demonstrate your football knowledge by entering your best 22 for the round one clash against Essendon.
A winner will be selected at random to receive a GC SUNS guernsey signed by the entire 2016 playing list.
The competition closes at 4:00pm AEST on Thursday 24 March, with the SUNS' round one team to be announced at 5:20pm that evening.
