2024 AFL Round 4 Preview & Betting Tips
Gold Coast vs GWS
Sunday 12:30 AEST, April 7th, Mt Barker
Recent history suggests its been a fixture dominated by the Sydney siders in the past, having won four out of their last five encounters - a changing of the guard at the helm of the Suns may be just what the doctor ordered.
With two wins under their belt already in season 2024, Gold Coast have made quick work learning the Damien Hardwick way after they parted ways with Stuart Dew following the end to his tenure at Carrara.
The engine room at the Suns have been box office in the early rounds this year, led by co-captain Touk Miller who’s formed a formidable partnership with young guns Noah Anderson and Matt Rowell to form a healthy Brownlow votes stealing trio.
On the other side of the ledger, GWS equally have their fair share of big-bodied midfielders at their disposal to go toe to toe in what shapes up to be a fascinating battle that’ll grip you from start to finish.
All-Australian Defender Sam Taylor will certainly have his say in the contest playing a key role on Ben King attempting to nullify his influence, another game inside the game that onlookers will be interested to see unfold.
Match Prediction: GWS have seemingly come out with a vengeance since falling short of their hopes and dreams last season, we expect them to prove hard to beat against a Suns outfit that will no doubt put up a fight.
The aforementioned midfield battle will draw many eyes as both sides' depth will be tested under the heat of the Adelaide sun, happy to lean with the Giants though with their experience another reason they get the job done.

Ben Ainsworth 1+ goal – the Suns livewire up forwards loves to sniff out a goal, always bobs up in the right place at the right time and at the odds on offer it seems remiss of us not to put him in as the first multi leg.
Tom Green 30+ disposals – has been in scintillating form averaging 33 disposals to start the year. Meets a jam-packed midfield group today where it will be hot in the kitchen, but just keeps going from strength to strength.
Noah Anderson 25+ disposals – likewise with Green continues to impress as a mature footballer far beyond his years. At the ripe old age of 23 Anderson is following a path similar to the greats and will make light work of this target.
Jesse Hogan 2+ goals – begun this season like a house on fire averaging a tick over 4 goals a game. Charlie Ballard will have his work cut out in their direct matchup, expect him to tick this box comfortably.
