Show Preview
The season resumes for both the Gold Coast Suns and West Coast Eagles as the two sides clash at Metricon Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:40pm (AEST).
With a serious premiership contender being pitted against the unbackable wooden spoon favourites, this one could get ugly quickly.
For all the offseason hype surrounding Gold Coast’s new assistance package, draft haul and free agency signings, it was the same old story against Port Adelaide as they managed just 29 points in a comprehensive 47-point loss. There were definitely bright spots, but the gulf in class between them and the rest of the AFL appears large.
The Eagles, on the other hand, had little trouble seeing off Melbourne at home, holding their 2018 preliminary victims goalless in the first quarter before cruising to a 27-point win. Big trade acquisition Tim Kelly didn’t set the world alight, but he helped Luke Shuey (27 disposals) and Andrew Gaff (30) get off the chain in an ominous sign of things to come.
Predictably, the Suns have an awful record against West Coast. Their last two meetings at home have resulted in a three-point win and a draw, but the other nine clashes overall have been losses with an average margin of 54 points.
