Gold Coast and Geelong have put on a show in Darwin with a historic first half in hot and humid conditions. Teams battle to adapt to a slippery ball when they venture to the Northern Territory and the Suns proved that last week with a 5.12 first half against North Melbourne, who managed 2.5, but there were no such issues on Thursday night.

Ben Long snaps brilliant goal in high-scoring first half. Gold Coast and the Cats played out Darwin’s highest-scoring first quarter since 2019 and that trend continued early in the second quarter when they went goal for goal early. “Well driving here tonight I don’t think we thought we were going to see 69 points on the scoreboard in the first 35 minutes of game time,” Joel Selwood said in commentary for Channel 7.
