Hmmm...the last time we played Geelong was...ah, yes, Round 23 last season at Skilled Stadium. Broke a nine run losing streak to them, and ended their 29 game unbeaten streak at home. And I was there to see it.
But, we still haven't beaten them in Sydney since Round 5, 2006, at Homebush. And the last time we beat them at the SCG was that semi-final in 2005.
You'd like to think we were favourites for this game, but that's what everyone thought last season when then easily beat us by about 5 goals at the SCG.
Both teams are coming off the bye, and our recent record in games after a week off has not been good. Then there's the possibility of it raining...
So we'd better bring our "A" game on Friday night. And if we do, I think we'll win by a couple of goals.
Swans by 14.
