Show Preview

Round 18 concludes with a buoyant Gold Coast travelling to Melbourne to face Essendon needing a win to keep their finals hopes alive. Join The Roar for live scores and rolling coverage from 4:40pm (AEST).

The Suns’ win after the siren against Richmond last week is in the clubhouse for their best win ever, but means nothing in the context of the season if they can’t back it up today.

Goalsneak Izak Rankine is a handy return from health and safety protocols, as the Suns look to keep apace with the top eight; a loss today would leave them two wins out and struggling to make up the difference.

The Bombers head in off the back of consecutive wins over top-eight sides; a stirring comeback victory over Sydney and an upset triumph at the Gabba over a COVID-hit Brisbane.

As a result, the previously struggling Dons are high on confidence, and with in-form defender Mason Redman back, are primed and ready to impact the finals race once again.
