Wild scenes as Lance Franklin joins the exclusive 1000 club after kicking four goals, as the Swans head for victory over the Cats. Follow the action live
Cats coach Chris Scott spoke to the media post-game.
. I’m conflicted obviously. It was history-making, wasn’t it? I don’t want to give the impression we came to the game thinking, “Aren’t we lucky to be here for Buddy to kick his 1,000th?“. I think we’ll look back and say it was a moment that well worth celebrating. Never seen that. Never been a part of anything like that. That was one of the most special moments you’d probably get, certainly I can look back on. I just said to the players after the game we were all privileged to, in my instance coach, Lance but also the players he has played with over the years, both at Sydney and Hawthorn, Alastair as well. We’ve just been able to watch one of the all-time greats go about his business. To sit there and watch that tonight was pretty special.
