Geelong will be on the road throughout the 2017 JLT Community Series, with the Cats to play matches in Tasmania, South Australia and central Victoria.

Chris Scott’s men will kick off their pre-season campaign with a Friday night clash against Hawthorn at the University of Tasmania Stadium (previously Aurora Stadium) in Launceston.

After a 15-day break, Geelong will head to Richmond Oval in Adelaide to take on the Crows in a Sunday afternoon game.

The following Sunday, the Cats will host Essendon at Bendigo’s Queen Elizabeth Oval.

The match in Bendigo will form part of the Powercor Country Program.

The first game under the Powercor Country Program banner took place in Shepparton in March, with the Cats easily defeating an under-strength Bombers line-up.
