e-AFL e-AFL Round 8 St Kilda v Gold Coast @ Marvel Stadium, Sun 26/4/20

[Ant Bear]

VS
(aka The King Cup)
​

Both teams come off a loss in Round 7. The Saints were outclassed by the Swans to the tune of 40 points, to drop out of the 8 and are currently locked in a logjam of teams fighting for a finals berth, whilst the streaking Suns were stopped in their tracks by the resurgent Bulldogs. Only a game and percentage separate these teams, making this game vital.
10th, 3-4, 106.38%
5th, 4-3, 105.98%

The Suns have been well served this e-season by big men Jarrod Witts who is the 4th-ranked ruckman in the league, and Ben King with 26 goals in the first 7 weeks, while the Saints have seen promising signs from the other King twin Max with 16 goals, and Rowan Marshall is top 10 in DT points. A big ruck clash will go a long way towards deciding this Anzac Round match.
