    Great win by Sydney after being well behind in the 3rd quarter. Both Scott brothers big losers for the round.

    Geelong coverting a 22 point 3QT lead into a 17 point loss. Should be some golden Chris Scott footage from that quarter.

    Really admirable. I noticed how good their foot skills were in patiently holding possession before launching into their forward line. They’re impressive, which makes us blowing our chance against them very frustrating.

    Did you notice Geelong constantly bombing the ball into their 50 to no one in particular.

    That was without Buddy and Kennedy too. Sydney's odds at 3/4 time must have been massive.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Kennedy played didn’t he?
    It was great to see Geelong lose. The Scott brother factor, the Joel Selwood factor, their shiny taxpayer funded stadium that costs everyone else a fortune to attend, the annoyingly parochial crowd and armchair ride from the umpires... I could go on...did I mention Joel Selwood?

    Griffen just wound the clock back and kicked a career best goal. Two side steps from a set kick around Lewis Taylor from outside 50m and 15m in from the boundary......

    I think Hannebury was the mid out.

    Buddy's temporary absence will be a Godsend to them - learning to find the gaols without him -> less reliance on him.
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

    Sorry I meant Hannebery. Most of the Sydney midfield are essentially the same person. They just clone them and give them different names.

    Did you mention Selwood? Annoying little berk. There's more than one of them at Geelong now too. I tell you it's not natural. Whatever they are doing.

    It was so annoying to see Hawthorn win. Not that I like St Kilda much but ... Hawthorn!! NFW!
    They were a class above the Saints though.
    Alan Richardson ia all class. When Membury hit the post his expression didn’t change - The Sphinx.

    Geelong losing to a weak Sydney side at home gives me so much joy.
