  "account": "The Gold Coast Suns have secured their top-four position in the AFLW after a convincing 22-point win over Melbourne in Mackay. This victory marks the Suns' sixth straight win, and it follows Melbourne's 63-point defeat to Geelong, which put the Cats at the top of the ladder. Adelaide defeated Richmond 32 points to 30 in Melbourne, leaving the Crows just outside the eight with three games of round nine remaining. The Suns, led by co-captain Lucy Single, were able to triumph in sweltering conditions, with Ava Usher, Mikayla Nurse, and Havana Harris all contributing with goals. Adelaide's 32-point win over Richmond also leaves the Crows in contention for the finals. The Geelong Cats are currently topping the ladder at 7-2, but if North Melbourne beats Fremantle on Sunday, they will take second place.",
  "summary": "Gold Coast Suns continue their run as the surprise packets of the AFLW season, consolidating their top-four spot with a victory over Melbourne.",
