Rd 2 vs Geelong Cats @ SCG - Match Thread

[Daisi]

We are a totally different team with Hickey on the field...so much better- we need a good back up ruck man...

This may have been mentioned earlier but apparently Blakey got reported for 'striking' Cameron. Just saw a replay....it's embarrassing he got reported at all.

I don't know how I feel about Clarkson wearing a swans scarf!

The most classy thing I’ve seen him do. I think it’s a good gesture.

What a freak Heeney is. He read that play for his 5th goal so well. Everyone else was backpedaling off the kick from Bud. He was moving forward, knowing it would be short, created space, scooped it up and went bang.

'Buddy-centricity' cost us a goal there.....can't blame Will for getting excited....but there's still a game to be won.

Cox needs to work with Hickey to stop these blocking frees in the ruck. That's 3 against him this game.

Lloydy hasn't got a left boot.

Interesting game of Where's Buddy.

Interesting game of Where's Buddy.

It's great stuff but it went on too long. Nice to see him get back to the safety of the rooms. He'll be stuffed after that.

Really glad it happened near the end of the game.

Seriously magnificent scenes. All very wicked and crazy with the crowd, but how can you not smile at that magnificence.

And that's before you think about what this swans team is starting to show - I know we still have to finish the job, but we couldn't be happier with what we've shown over the first two weeks.

The sky is potentially the limit for this squad in 2022 if they believe.

.....and now the interview.....during the quarter! That's Buddy power.

Just saying, it'll be a miracle if half the side doesn't pick up Covid tonight.

I think that's a Buddy scarf. Clarkson was the Hawthorn coach when Buddy was recruited. Buddy has only had two coaches in his career.

And well done Buddy getting to 1000 goals.

Glad we appear to have got out of that, without some serious crush injuries. I was starting to get a bit worried.

Still, it was brilliant seeing it fly straight between the posts.

Ew, never thought of that. We'll see how it pans out. Fingers crossed.
