I was there and the atmosphere was just euphoric. When Buddy marked for his fourth goal everyone went nuts. When he kicked it there wasn’t even time to celebrate, just get on the field! Just an amazing experience.

[@charlesyt6258]

This is one of the best AFL games I have been to the crowd was just electrifying whenever buddy even went near the ball also let's appreciate the kick to buddy from Chad Warner for the 1000 goals

[@aflgoat1371]

Unbelievable from Buddy big 1000!

[@tobyvan6740]

Best 1000 kicked. The last as well. He did it in a time where there was zone defensive and no 1 on 1 contests. Goat

[@paulmcgrory5165]

Also he wasnt a specialist full-forward like the others. He has mainly played at CHF. Greatest effort of all time.

[@Flamingbro69]

A Marvelous Performance by the Swannies. The team overall continues to grow stronger each day with how much they’ve improved compared to where they were two years ago. Regardless though, an all-around fantastic and dominant performance, especially from Mills, Heeney, Paddy and especially Buddy, still doing it all at Age 35 and reaching to goal 1000. Absolute Beauty. Definitely looking forward to the rest of this season, especially with how dangerous the Swannies are looking! Cheers from the U.S.

[@joememphis1571]

Buddy will kick 65 or 70 goals this season.

[@Artini_Breww]

I'm so happy I can say in the future that I got to witness this live

[@sad_eagles_supporter7186]

Look at the accuracy, on one hand Sydney hit almost every shot on goal and on the other Geelong missed a lot of their shots, 4.10 in the last half lmao

[@fuzzyhair321]

Yeah the best accuracy in years, could be the swans year

I can already tell this is going to be a goal of the year contender, and before you start sooking that ‘It’s a set shot!’ IT WAS HIS 1000TH GOAL

I chose the best seat in the house buddy kicked the goal in front being like 12 years old I couldn’t see a thing but there was nice man in front of me who ducked down and my dad has chatting to the guy who ended up chatting the ball

[@thekingdomway3473]

Can someone explain to me how the scoring works

[@nathanking6670]

If you kick it in between the two middle posts it is 6 points. If you kick it on the outside of either of those two middle posts, it is 1 point. If you don't get it in between any posts, it is 0 points.

Edit: Forget about the Sydney Swans. Instead, I will be watching Port Adelaide vs Hawthorn. I will be backing for the Echuca boy Ollie Wines. He is a great AFL player. He is 100 times better than bad footy players who got sent to the AFL Tribunal and 1000 times better than being banned from the AFL. Ollie Wines, if you are watching this, you and your teammates are hoping to win and not lose. I hope that Port Adelaide wins.
