Gold Coast Suns Form
The Gold Coast Suns seem to have a real issue with finding a way to build on wins this season, with victories all too often followed by defeats.
Their superb 113-43 win over the West Coast Eagles was quickly followed by a 107-64 defeat at the hands of the Brisbane Lions.
The Suns have only managed to back up one win with another, with this coming when they beat the North Melbourne Kangaroos and the Richmond Tigers in late-April.
