This should not be newsworthy, but Geelong’s inability to win after a week off is the stuff legends are made of. Geelong has won 75% of its games since the AFL introduced the bye week in 2012. This is their third win after a bye, their second after a midseason bye.
Not only did the Cats win 112-91, but they did so after flying to Adelaide, taking the bus from the airport straight to the game, beating up on Port, taking the bus back to the airport, and flying back to Melbbourne. Maybe the hoodoo is finally broken.
Tomorrow, I get to drive a gator towing the lights to Friday night’s Blue Dome race course and put up a few banners on the rails.
