Around The Tweets – AFL Round 6

Around The Tweets – AFL Round 6

Sadly the five day marathon of footy has drawn to a close. In a round which had more twists and turns than the latest GoT episode let’s recap the Anzac weekend through the opinionated scope of the Twittesphere!

Yet again, Round 6 of the AFL gave us plenty to Tweet about and it’s all here in another epic edition of Around the Tweets!

SUNDAY TWILIGHT
Geelong 15-14 (104) def. West Coast 7-4 (46)

The Cats celebrated their 2009 premiership team by making light work of the 2018 premiers in 58-point drumming!

GIVING GARRY – Garry Ablett Jnr may have plenty of harsh critics in the stands, but he’s making just as many mates on the ground putting five teammates through on goal.

CAT FACTS – #1 scoring, #1 defending, #1 humility, #1 booed player?
