Adelaide Crows vs Gold Coast Suns Preview
A 12th vs 14th clash awaits on Saturday with both sides playing to keep their finals hopes alive.
Adelaide and the Gold Coast were arguably the two biggest winners of Round 20, the Crows completing a clean sweep over rivals Port Adelaide in emphatic fashion, and the Suns also snapping a long losing skid to Brisbane in the Q-Clash.
The Crows are arguably the most-deserving team in the finals mix, playing Collingwood close on two occasions, beating Carlton, Brisbane, and St Kilda, and owning a pair of wins against the Power.
Matthew Nicks’ side has been almost impossible to beat at home this year, but the Crows do have their hands full against a Suns side more than capable of keeping up on the scoreboard.
Gold Coast has quietly been one of the best teams when it comes to winning the clearances this year, and if they can get the same kind of production they saw last week from Ben King, there’s no telling what they might be capable of.
Unfortunately, recent history is against the Suns, particularly in South Australia. Gold Coast has lost 14 straight games in Adelaide, but it’s worth noting their last six visits have all gone Over the Total.
With Taylor Walker looking a genuine Coleman chance, and King finding some form, a high-scoring Crows win might be on the cards.
