Poll
Question:
Who will win?
Option 1: Suns
votes: 17
Option 2: Dogs
votes: 3
Option 3: Draw
votes: 1
The Suns snapping at the Top 4 here can they keep the momentum going against the Dogs? Will Gazz continue his outstanding form?
I`ll be going for the Suns to win this don`t think it`ll be a big win tho.
Suns by about 30.
Please play KK, I need you!
Suns
GAJ another 3 votes
Suns in 5th after 8 games, that's a really impressive effort.
Not sure whether they can break into the top 4, but they'll show the competition exactly why 2014 is the year they play finals for the first time.
Suns will win here and should win comfortably. Based on the draw and current form the Gold Coast should make the 8.
Think the Suns will keep on keeping on and win this one. :)
GC have a very tough couple of weeks after this one, so they need to get the win on the board to give themselves every chance of finals
Suns by 25. J
Yeh Suns should win this one. Would love another huge game from GAJ but Doggies have some very good taggers
Gold Coast should win, especially since it's up at Metricon.
Lynch, Day and Dixon will kill Bulldogs' defence.
Suns by 30+
Suns easily

okay... only just realised that this game starts at 3... and the other game starts at 4:30... which = can't watch both full games... what the... why the flower do people do these things? it physically hurts my head to think why the AFL wouldn't start one game at 1:30 (which they do every flowering week anyway) and the other at 4:30. it seriously hurts my head and I don't need this shower on a sunday morning. flower you AFL.

Final teams #AFLSunsDogs - No changes. Subs: Lemmens (@GoldCoastSUNS) and Giansiracusa (@westernbulldogs)
Gia the sub no surprise.
No surprise with Lemmens either IMO. Instead of resting him like Kolo last week they decided to give him the green vest. Not a bad move.
Suns should romp it home today IMO, Dixon & Lynch to put on a show ;)
C'mon Picken and Morris #Eskimos
what a start
Dixon two goals already :o
Dixon on 26, a minute and a half in to the game
Dixon dominating.
This is the Charlie Dixon show atm.
Remember about six years ago, when a young Hawks won before they were meant to? The Suns could possibly beat the Power at the MCG yet in 2014 :o
Sorry for breaking Ablett :(

I remember a while ago someone here on FF referred to him has TEAC and I still laugh about it today. TEAC = Risky Tele (vision) haha love it
Loving Gaz having a quiet one too, please stay that way - my only chance of winning league match as opp has him C and I took Pendles
Libba and Swallow going well for me too, just need a bit more out of Higgins
The Haus always wins.

Rischitelli was the B+F in his last year at Brisbane. He had been battling a chronic tendon injury in his hamstring since 2012 which meant he basically couldn't run at 100% which didn't help.
I believe he has gotten over the injury problems which have plagued him and to be fair to him he is having his best season for the Suns.

Bennell didn't play very well in that first half and ended with a 50, I'll take that. When I picked him up I didn't realise GC were going to run him primarily as a forward, was still hopping for that forward/mid blend.

Hey at least he tried. :P
Would be good if he didn't next time
how ironic it would be if Ablett was my lowest scorer this week, can't complain given I have Pendles as captain.
Wonder if Ablett has ever been less than 20 at HT
I was near no chance to win my league match, but my opponent has Gaz C, and I have Libba, Higgins and Swallow so I hope this sort of luck continues, would be stoked to pinch the win!

Besides injury effected games, CD just tweeted that 8 touches at half time is his lowest ever count as a Sun
I was looking really good to win most/all games this week. Of course, I went Selwood VC so had to take GAJ C. Already had GAJ C in DT/AF. Gonna lose errrrrything (except those games where my opponent also has GAJ C)
SuperCoach Paige @SuperCoachPaige 1m
Incidentally, the last time Ablett recorded just 8 disposals in the first half, he finished the match with 123 SuperCoach points.

You can be a gun by making the right plays on the footy field instead of blasting from 50 meters out on the boundary.
Picken's gone backwards this quarter. :(
Picken really needs to give up footy, when he actually gets near the ball he's flowering clueless.
Such a same, this was a really good game up until 1/2 time

Libba's tackle numbers are ridiculous. Has 11 atm.
They flowering refuse to acknowledge a Benell tackle, that's twice now he's blatantly been tackling someone and champion data still has him at 0 tackles.
Pretty sure the tackle only counts if it causes a stoppage.

Pretty sure that's incorrect. If you chase down someone and tackle them but they manage to handball the ball away, it still counts as a tackle.
