GEELONG has named an unchanged team for its Round 7 clash with Fremantle at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday.

The Dockers have started 2022 in terrific form sitting second on the AFL ladder, four spots ahead of the Cats and senior coach Chris Scott is excited about the challenge facing his side this week.

"It's a while since they've been here and I think it's shaping as a big game for both clubs," Scott said.

"They're playing top-four football as far as we can see.

"It will be a good challenge to test ourselves against a team that, even if you just focus on the numbers, is a different team to the one they were last year, almost uniformly in a positive sense."
