Show Preview
The Gold Coast Suns welcome the in-form North Melbourne Kangaroos to Metricon Stadium today. Join The Roar for live scores and a blog of the match, starting from 4:35pm (AEST).
The Suns are coming off a horrendous 83-point loss to the GWS Giants, which took place at the Giants Stadium.
Stuart Dew’s side have too many injuries to cover at this moment, and it is certainly showing in the results.
The Suns have not secured a victory since round four, where they defeated the Carlton Blues. In total, the Gold Coast have won three games after 11 rounds.
In terms of positives from the game against the Giants last weekend, Darcy MacPherson found the ball 23 times. Also, Ben King looked a threat down forward, although he was only able to score one major for the game.
In team news this week for the Suns, Touk Miller, Jarrod Harbrow and Will Brodie come into the side. Jack Bowes and Josh Schoenfeld miss the game through injury. George Horlin-Smith has been omitted.
In regards to North Melbourne, it was the perfect start for caretaker coach Rhyce Shaw last week, as his side defeated the Richmond Tigers by 37 points.
Ben Cunnington and Shaun Higgins were immense in the midfield, with both of them accumulating 30 or more disposals each.
Ben Brown kicked five majors, and Mason Wood was also clinical, as he finished with four majors next to his name.
The Kangaroos now have secured four wins from 11 rounds, and have won consecutive games having defeated the Tigers.
With how the season has played out, they have nothing to lose, and if they can maintain the pressure and intensity which proved too much for the Tigers last week, they will cause a few upsets for the remainder of the season.
In team news this week for North Melbourne, Sam Durdin comes into the side, in place of Jamie Macmillan, who misses through injury.
Prediction
The Suns have too many injuries to cover at the moment, and the fact the Kangaroos have found some form, it should mean North Melbourne collect a third consecutive victory.
North Melbourne by 26 points.
