Jeez Sydney must be a lock for the flat beating a clear top 2 team like Geelong… right?

Difference right now is Heeney has not missed and Geelong have missed a number of set shots. 26 at half time but IMO it should be a 12 point game.

 

[HirdyLannister]

Essendon softening up Geelong for Sydney.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Difference is pressure Swans are applying to Cats …complete opposite of last week

 

[Beerfish]

There was obviously a special on check blazers this week somewhere

 

[Blind Turn]

Geelong could’ve brought this unaccountable shite against us. Perhaps we just managed to out-unaccountable them last week.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

My god have Geelong been bad in the guts. what the hell did we do last week.

 

[BrunoV]

Beats me.

Absolutely bizarre that you'd quote that chart.

What happens from September to November, aside from from the weather heating up and the climate changing out of conditions during which you expect to see an upper respiratory virus.

FMD

 

[TheGrizz]

Is anyone else anxious at the lack of security and the amount of random people swamping Buddy and trying to reach out and touch him by himself after he kicked his 1000th goal

Genuinely worried about him

 

[BrunoV]

Nice one Bud.

How many bags will they destroy tonight?

 

[eth-dog]

Ridiculous

This has been planned for yonks, unless you had one security per patron they weren’t gonna stop it

Sure, but surely leaving Buddy one out against 15000 randoms hitting him in the head and pulling on his jumper isn't the solution.

 

[mike14]

Kind of lucky that this didn't happen in a close game.

Agree they can't stop it but **** me could they have made a bit more of an effort to get to the bloke. None in sight until he reached the fence.

 

[Kyptastic]

What an achievement.

Makes me even more sad that Lloydy never quite got there

 

[TheUnicorn]

Jeez that must be terrifying, Everyone screaming at you and jumping all over you, smashing phones in ur face.

 

[TheGrizz]

What an achievement.

If Lloyd didn't tear his hamstring off the bone in R3 of 2006, he would have. He had kicked 13 goals in 2.5 games to that point.

 

[windyhill]

Ran on for both the Lloyd tons (check for Arsenal scarf) and had a kick to kick and a beer for one of Dunstalls. All good.

Probably won't

I’m actually a bit embarrassed that his teammates just ditched him and left him to contend battling though 20 thousand sweaty pissheads

To be fair they probably thought the people who's actual job it was to protect him wouldn't duck off for a smoko.

Were some randoms chairing him?

I love the tradition but I reckon it tipped into something that was not fun, it was all a bit too intense.

Would be interesting to compare with the most recent tons and and 1000s.

I think Buddy has handled a very uncomfortable situation very well. Probably helps that he's a lad and so tall.

 

[ghostdog]

His durability is amazing. Rare talent who has been a pleasure to watch.
