Gold Coast Suns vs Geelong Cats Prediction, Preview, Team News and More: AFL Round 10 2024
The Gold Coast Suns will attempt to add another win to their record in Darwin as they face off against the Geelong Cats this Thursday. The Cats have now lost two games in a row and will look to reenter the winners’ circle.
The Suns have been inconsistent all season and their recent win against the Kangaroos, while positive, is not reassuring. North Melbourne are yet to win a single match this season, so a win over them doesn’t say much for Gold Coast.
Their wins have been followed by losses and they’ve only performed well against teams that are struggling. However, when facing teams that are above them on the AFL Ladder, the Suns have consistently fallen short. Even with two back-to-back losses, Geelong boast the superior form between the two sides.
Geelong have lost their matches in the last two rounds. Despite losing to sixth-placed Port Adelaide, the Cats delivered a spectacular performance, making a strong comeback in the second half and losing the match by only six points (95-101). This week, they'll be fired up and ready to make a strong comeback.
