Adelaide Crows vs Gold Coast Suns Preview
Friday’s clash between the Crows and Suns mightn’t appear the most exciting game on paper, but it does hold plenty of weight in terms of the top eight.
After costing punters dearly in Round 1 with their huge upset over Geelong, the Crows came crashing back down to earth last week with a 33-point loss to the Swans in Sydney.
Almost in reverse, the Suns bounced back from their gutsy loss to West Coast to hand North Melbourne a 59-point defeat at home – a result that has left the Gold Coast sitting sixth on the ladder on points differential.
Likewise, the Crows could temporarily rejoin the eight with a win of their own, but this does look a tough assignment against a very underrated Suns forward line.
Last week saw Jack Lukosius finish with a goal and 12 score involvements, while Ben King and Izak Rankine both chimed in with three goals each.
On the flip side, of course, is Tex Walker – who currently leads the Coleman Medal race with 11 goals to his name.
While the Suns do represent value head-to-head, it’s hard to get away from the fact they remain winless in six games against the Crows in Adelaide.
With both forward lines operating at a high rate though, the Over does look to be a worthwhile play.
