  • Matt Rowell collected 32 disposals, 13 tackles and 12 clearances and Noah Anderson’s fourth-quarter snap sealed the win.
  • The Suns move to an 11-5 record and sit inside the AFL’s top eight as they push for their inaugural finals appearance.
  • Damien Hardwick has instructed the squad to focus on its ‘next shift’ against Adelaide and Brisbane rather than on finals.
