Much more entertaining football in the third term, the slippery ground is still making it difficult for the players but they have adjusted to the conditions well. The Swans started the quarter off strongly kicking 5 scores including 3 goals, 2 of those goals were to Lance Franklin who was looking to take the game over on his own.
Geelong responded again through Tom Hawkins who kicked a goal to give the Cats back the lead, this was short lived though as Luke Parker responded down the other end to give the Swans back the lead in the see sawing quarter.
Inaccuracy is plaguing the Cats in front of goals and it has been costly so far as they have dominated the game in large portions without actually taking it over like they should have.
Gary Ablett left the ground midway through with a knock to the leg but returned not long after.
Leading Goal Kickers.
Sydney: Lance Franklin 4, Daniel Robinson 1, Luke Parker 1, Tom McCartin 1
Geelong: Tom Hawkins 2, Tim Kelly 1, Quinton Narkle 1, Lachie Fogarty 1

Gazza Jr cops an errant knee to his thigh and hobbles off, doesn’t look overly serious so a quick rest and he should be back on the ground.
