By and large a good game. He's currently in season-best form (which I know ain't saying a lot). When he got put onto Cam Mooney, I thought 'this is gonna be a bloodbath', but he actually did a good job of containing him.

Plus, he proved again on a few occasions that he is a very good one-grab overhead mark-- even when going back with the flight. This is a skill not to be scoffed at.

The bad news is that his pretty poor kick for goal after a good mark 30-35 metres out earlyish in the 3rd quarter, that could have had us go in front, was for my money the turning point of the game. 3 minutes after that, we looked like we were never going to head them, and in fact didn't.

For all of the mediocrity of Sydney's forward entries, at the end of the day it was an 18 vs 20 scoring shots game of footy, i.e. the number 1 reason why we didn't either win or go within a kick or so, is that Geelong converted a large proportion of their chances, and we didn't.
