Gold Coast SUNS vs GWS GIANTS Preview
Gold Coast’s finals ambitions face a stern test on Saturday afternoon when they host GWS at People First Stadium. The Suns kept their top-four hopes alive with a 93-74 win over Carlton last week, powered by Matt Rowell’s 30 disposals and Ben King’s six-goal haul. Stuart Dew’s side has won six of its past seven matches and boasts an imposing 8-1 home record in 2025.
GWS also tasted victory in Round 22, brushing aside North Melbourne 133-79 in Canberra, but a loss here could see them tumble out of the top eight. The Giants have long enjoyed this match-up, winning 14 of their past 15 against the Suns, including a Round 15 thriller where they overturned a 29-point deficit to win 106-99. With both teams desperate for September security, expect a high-stakes contest with plenty riding on the result.
