That was a better passage of play. Good goal to Hamilton.

The team’s decision making is truly awful. Not dissimilar to a fair bit of the umpiring.

Bella Smith is a late out, with Aimee Whelan coming in. Apparently it's a tactical change, due to the drizzly, slippery conditions. A good chance for a win, with the Suns being winless, but it's hard to be totally confident, with Molloy, Morphett and Gardiner being out.

[Ruck'n'Roll]

The teams been put up: Sarah Grunden and Szigeti returning.
Julie O'Sullivan is out after the damage done last week. And Montana Beruldsen omitted yet again.
Montana is one of only 3 fit playes not named in the team or as an emergency.With ex Lion Kiara Hillier (who hasn't been seen since round 2, so preumably injured) and Eliza Vale (who last played in round 5, when she was a late inclusion and scored her first goal). So the cupboard is very bare.

Gold Coast are yet to win a game this year, but we've given a couple of teams their first win this season - hopefully not again, and equally hopefully it'll be a nice day.

Point of interest: Giselle Davies playing against her sister Darcie (the Suns relief ruck) for the first time.
