Gold Coast Suns vs Hawthorn Hawks Round 10 AFL Tips - Suns to stay hot in Darwin
The Gold Coast Suns are expected to continue their winning streak at TIO Stadium, favored to defeat the Hawthorn Hawks this Thursday night. The Suns, accustomed to short rest games, have advantages in scoring chances and ruck play, giving them an edge despite Hawthorn's efficiency inside 50. Hawthorn faces a challenging trip and conditions, likely leading to a narrow defeat. John Noble is a key player to watch with expectations to have over 25 disposals.

Gold Coast Suns vs Hawthorn Hawks, Round 10 2025 - Expert Prediction
Gold Coast will make it 2 from 2 at TIO Stadium this year and 8 in a row at the venue with a win over Hawthorn this Thursday night.
It is a short turnaround for both clubs on just 5 days rest with both teams having played on Saturday. Hawthorn will need to travel to Darwin on a 4.5 hour flight and adjust quickly to the oppressive conditions there while the Suns have set up camp following their win last weekend against the Dogs.
Hawthorn have played in just 5 games with 5 days rest since the start of 2019 and have lost all of them while the Suns are more accustomed having won their last 2 games on short rest including this corresponding back to back in Darwin last season.
The Suns are creating more scoring chances by getting Inside 50 compared to Hawthorn but the Hawks have a higher efficiency rate meaning this will likely result in a close finish. Gold Coast have a superior ruck and lead slightly in average clearances per game which gives them the edge in an important aspect of the game.
Hawthorn are good at marking the ball and gaining uncontested possessions. My expectation is that Gold Coast will pressure their handballing out of trouble leading to turnovers which they can capitalise on.
Take the Suns to win 1-39 given Hawthorn haven’t lost by more points in 17 games. The conditions and travel will be too much for the Hawks who will likely try hard early but ultimately fade late, going Under their Team Total. John Noble will have 25+ disposals.
- Gold Coast have won 7 in a row at TIO Stadium.
- The Hawks have not won a game on 5 days rest since before 2019.
- 12 of 18 results from these two teams have finished with 1-39 pt margins.
- John Noble had 23 touches last week but went 25+ in 5 of previous 7 including 4 straight leading into last weekend.
Head to Head
