Geelong is facing a worrying losing streak as they risk a third straight defeat against a dangerous Gold Coast side after their 7-0 start to the 2024 season.

The Suns, still in the finals race, are unbeaten in Darwin over the last three seasons, while Geelong will play their first-ever home-and-away match in Darwin.

The Cats are without Jeremy Cameron and Tom Hawkins, with a significant experience deficit and changes at selection.

Since the start of the 2021 season, no team has played more games or won more times at TIO Stadium than the Suns.

Sam De Koning is ruled out, replaced by Zach Tuohy, while Jhye Clark and Alex Davies are named subs.

The game starts with a musical Welcome to Country at TIO Stadium, setting the stage for a competitive battle between the two sides.

The match begins with a shocking error by Toby Conway that gifts Jack Lukosius the first goal, but Geelong responds with a goal by Tyson Stengle.

Goals keep exchanging hands, with the Suns showing strength with players like Gryan Miers while Geelong struggles to adjust to the conditions.

Lead changes continue throughout the game, with players like Ben Ainsworth and David Swallow making significant contributions for Gold Coast.

Sam Day‘s goals add to the Suns’ lead, putting Geelong in a challenging position as they face a potential third consecutive loss.
