Davies drills a goal for Suns
Suns utility Alex Davies has come up with some big players this season and he just came up with a tackle that forced a holding the ball penalty.
He went back and kicked the ball right over the goal umpire’s head.
Huge goal for the Suns.

Clark hurt after brave play
Freo’s All-Australian defender Jordan Clark flew high to punch away a certain goal for the Suns but he was tipped in the air and landed on his back and neck.
He remained down for several second before gingerly getting up.
He is trying to play on but one wonders if he might be taken off for some form of concussion assessment.
Suns 32, Dockers 32 with seven mins to go in Q2.

Reid stands strong
Murphy Reid just continues to impress in his first AFL season.
He went up for a mark and was taken down by Bodhi Uwland and received a free kick.
Reid shook it off and went back to kick the goal.
Dockers now lead.

Two goals for the pony
Voss powered out on the lead and took a strong mark.
He was locked in as he went back and nailed the shot for goal.
Voss appeared to give one his Suns’ opponents a tap on the backside as he jogged past after kicking that goal.
What a character.

Suns on the board yet again
The Suns have a taste for this final now and they are flying.
Connor Budarick showed he wanted the ball the most beating out a pack of players to soccer home a bouncing ball.

Erasmus hits the target; Suns respond
Neil Erasmus is an impressive player for the Dockers and he has shown some skill to take a handball from Murphy Reid and boot a goal from 50m out.
Reid has been a superb creator in the first half.

But the Suns have hit back immediately as Humphrey again found the footy, this time with a deep mark in the forward line.
He played on quickly and kicked his second goal.

Amiss fires upon return
Amiss has returned to the field and made an impact leading hard to take a mark and then snapping a goal from the right boundary.
That toughness will fire up his teammates and they need a spark right now.
Suns 18, Dockers 14 with 17 mins to go in Q2.

Humphrey snaps a goal
“Absolute brute strength,” Nathan Buckley said on Fox Footy as he watched Bailey Humphrey snapped a goal after shrugging off some hapless Dockers.
Moe’s finest is on song tonight in the red of the Suns.
Suns 18, Freo 8 with 19 mins to go in Q2.

Quarter time stats
8.08pm
QT: Gold Coast 1.6 (12) to Fremantle 1.2 (8)
The wise heads in the Fox Footy commentariat will be burning through the microphones tonight after Freo star Michael Frederick chose to kick a grubber shot at an open goal and it missed.
Jason Dunstall will be preparing to scream bloody murder although he was on an earlier show, so that could save the Dockers star some additional anguish.

The Suns haven’t punished the Dockers for that miss as Ben King just missed a shot at goal.
Both sides have wasted chances – whoever gets their kicking boots on could take a big advantage here.
