Geelong will play five of their first six games in Victoria in 2021 after the AFL announced their home and away season fixture on Monday.
After it was revealed the Cats would take on the Crows in Adelaide on Saturday in Round 1 over the weekend, the next five rounds were announced in full on Monday.
The Cats will welcome their 2020 preliminary final opponent Brisbane to GMHBA Stadium in round two for a Friday night blockbuster.
Following that clash, the Cats and Hawks will battle on Easter Monday at the MCG in their traditional match up.
Round four sees the Cats head back to the MCG on a Sunday afternoon to take on Melbourne.
The Kangaroos will be the Cats opponent at GMHBA Stadium in round five in the twilight time spot on Sunday.
In the last of the confirmed rounds released so far, West Coast will visit GMHBA Stadium for the traditional Saturday afternoon time in round six.
The remaining rounds of the 2021 home and away season have only been released with the opponent and location with further announcements to confirm days and times for these matches.
