Geelong has made three changes to its team that will play the Melbourne at the MCG this Saturday from 7.30pm AEST.
Tom Stewart returns to the side alongside Gary Rohan and Jhye Clark. They replace captain Patrick Dangerfield who will miss the next 4-6 weeks with a hamstring strain, Brandan Parfitt (managed) and Mark O'Connor (managed).
The clash at the MCG will see the Cats take on the Demons in a top-four clash and the first time since Round 4 2021.
Geelong enters the contest in excellent form starting the season with seven straight wins, the most recent a 14-point victory against the Carlton at the MCG last weekend.
Melbourne enter the clash in good form after a 43-point victory over Richmond in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash in Round 7.
The last time the two sides met was in Round 15, 2023, when the Cats took home the four points, with a 15-point win down at GMHBA Stadium.
First bounce will be at 7.30pm AEST and will be broadcast on Channel 7, Kayo and K rock.
