Geelong has made two changes to its team that will play the Western Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval this Saturday from 8.10pm AEDT.
Rhys Stanley and Zach Tuohy return to the side after being managed last week. They replace ruck Toby Conway (managed) and Oisin Mullin (omitted).
The Gather Round encounter will be a big occasion for Mark Blicavs who has been named to play his 250th AFL game.
Geelong enters the contest in excellent form following three wins to start the season, the most recent a 36-point victory against the Hawks in Round 3 at the MCG.
The last time the two sides met was in Round 24, 2023, where the Cats went down to the Bulldogs by 25 points.
First bounce will be at 8.10pm AEDT and will be broadcast on Channel 7 and Kayo.
