Goodes to return to AFL action

Sydney star Adam Goodes has confirmed he will return to AFL action against Geelong on Saturday night.

Goodes missed the Swans’ last-start victory over Adelaide, after being worn down by the incessant booing from opposing fans.

“Whether this is my last year or not, I really want to go out there and enjoy the last five games of the season and another finals campaign and then we’ll see what happens,” the 37-year-old Goodes told the Swans’ website.
