The prime mover
Josh Kennedy. Shaken – literally – against Greater Western Sydney in week one of the finals, Kennedy was all the things he usually is in last weekend's win over Adelaide. Tough. Strong. Big-hearted. Persistent. Forceful.  With Luke Parker, Kieren Jack, Luke Parker and Tom Mitchell by his side Kennedy is one part of an impossible to budge team, and a group that  will make Geelong work really, really hard to get their hands on the ball before even starting to think about anything else. His 42-possession game against the Crows included 10 clearances and four tackles. A goal was the one thing missing but that doesn't matter; the Sydney midfielders fill in each other's gaps and are always there for each other.
