GREATER Western Sydney has survived a mighty scare to hold off a brave Gold Coast and win by eight points in a thrilling contest at Metricon Stadium on Saturday night.
Trailing by four points with five minutes remaining, the Giants relied on quick goals from Jeremy Cameron and Toby Greene to sneak home, 14.8 (92) to 13.6 (84). The win keeps them in third place with three rounds remaining.
The Giants won, but the Suns were heroic in defeat. Already undermanned with their seven best midfielders on the sidelines, Gold Coast had Alex Sexton (corked thigh) and Tom Nicholls (knee) barely able to run for most of the night but battling on regardless.
