Sitting in the freezing cold all evening and nobody won. Yet another exhilirating thriller involving the GWS Giants.

Full time at Spotless Stadium on the first day of the 2017-18 financial year, GWS Giants 10-8 (68) drew with Geelong 10-8 (68). The Giants' first draw in their sixth season of AFL. Match report from GWS, and stats from the AFL website.
