GOLD COAST v HAWTHORN

Thursday 15 May @ Tio Stadium

Who would have thought Gold Coast v Hawthorn in the middle of May could be a forerunner to a final?

But that is the case given they sit in the top 4 and easily so.

While GC hasn't put two wins together for over a month, it is the fact they defeated a good, in form team last time.

And even if the Dogs made a late comeback, which made it look a bit hairy, they'd done all the hard work. With Rowell controlled, up stepped Anderson and Miller.

They will need that sometimes as well, as Rowell is likely tagged.

Last time they met    16.13 [109] 8.8 [56] Gold Coast
Last 10 matches 6 wins 4 wins  
Notes 4 of the last 5 to the Suns.
Played once here when GC won by 67 points.
Hawthorn was basically level with a quarter to go at the MCG. They had to lift over the Demons.

But the difference for the Hawks was that they all jumped on board. Probably because up front Gunston and Chol won't win you games necessarily on their own but likely won't lose them either.

Gold Coast has a tremendous record at this ground winning 7 from 9, making it a home away from home.

They may be ready to explode now having gotten the full value of this double header. From here surely Finals are there to be hammered home.

Match Selection: Gold Coast by 11 points

Suggested Bets: Gold Coast 1-39 @ $2.25
