A flurry of five unanswered goals has steered Geelong to a 20-point half-time lead over Port Adelaide in a fast-paced, ball-pinging, end-to-end qualifying final at Adelaide Oval.
Jeremy Cameron added to his miracle first-quarter goal with another slick finish, which he celebrated enthusiastically, Michael O’Loughlin-style, on the fence, staring down a Power fan offering his feedback.
Willie Rioli almost pulled down the mark of the night over Jake Kolodjashnij, before Ollie Dempsey was able to go one better when he latched onto a screamer over Jase Burgoyne on the outer wing.
Tyson Stengle has bagged three goals, while Max Holmes shrugged off a left foot scare to thrive with his pace through the middle, captain Patrick Dangerfield riding shotgun.
