Good evening footy fans and welcome to Wide World of Sports’ live coverage of tonight’s blockbuster semi-final between Geelong and the GWS Giants!
Of course, the lead-up to tonight’s match has been dominated by the tribunal and subsequent suspension of Giants star Toby Greene, who was rubbed out for the remainder of the finals series for his clash with field umpire Matt Stevic.
How will the Giants fare without him tonight? It must be said that this same team booked a spot in the 2019 grand final with Greene sidelined through suspension, and with the quality they have across the ground it would unwise to expect them to just roll over.
However, the Giants will be up against a proud club that has come under some fire itself this week after it continued its unenviable record in the first week of finals series’ since 2012.
Geelong’s finals record under Chris Scott is well-documented, but one thing his sides have always done is respond well to qualifying finals defeats.
They were in this position last year and comprehensively defeated Collingwood, before eventually going down in the decider to Richmond.
It’s set up to be an absolute ripper of a contest! Who will book their ticket to the preliminary finals?
