AFL 2014 ROUND 11; SYDNEY V GEELONG; TEAMS AND MATCH PREVIEW
Ben Jensen 28 May 2014

By Ben Jensen SYDNEY SWANS V GEELONG CATS STEVE JOHNSON and Billie Smedts will return for Geelong against Sydney at the SCG on Thursday night. No specialist backmen have been drawn into the side to replace injured duo Tom Lonergan and Corey Enright, instead expect to see Mark Blicavs down back, who deputised for Lonergan with some success in Friday night's win over the Kangaroos. Just the one change for Sydney, bringing in former Hawk Ben McGlynn for Brendon Jack.

SIMONDS STADIUM

CATS PURRING AFTER WIN OVER SWANS
Ben Jensen 24 August 2013

AFL 2013 ROUND 22 GEELONG CATS V SYDNEY SWANS GEELONG put on a show this evening at Simonds Stadium in a forty-four point win over the Sydney Swans, securing second spot and a likely opening final against Fremantle at the MCG. Although the match was a sell out with people brandishing Grand Final-like cardboard signs saying 'Tickets Wanted' the crowd was well short of capacity at 28,459, and were noticeably more vocal after the club's campaign to get more noise from the crowd. The twilight format got a big thumbs up from fans, allowing punters to make the most of the day then still be able to go out for dinner after the game, the Cats' 1000th game in Geelong
