Gold Coast have sacked coach Rodney Eade after three disappointing seasons at the helm of the AFL club. The Suns sit out of finals contention in 15th place this season under Eade, who previously coached at Sydney and the Western Bulldogs. A compelling 2017 AFL season but exactly how close has it been so far? Assistant Dean Solomon will take over as interim coach for the remaining three games this season. The Suns have managed six wins from 19 games this season and have never reached the AFL finals in six years.
