ASH’S RUN AND STUN GENTLE PUSHES PACE: P38

‘I DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING’

GOLD Coast Suns coach Rodney Eade was left stunned by his side’s China capitulation against Port Adelaide.

The AFL’s historic first foray into China for premiership points was a lopsided affair as the Power hammered home a 16.14 (110) to 4.14 (38) victory in Shanghai.

“That is as disappointed as I have been, to be honest,’’ Eade said in the aftermath of his team’s terrible effort. “I didn’t see that coming.” REPORT P32 WAS THE SHANGHAI TRIP WORTH IT? P39
