GEELONG has made four changes for its Round 17 clash with Carlton at the MCG on Saturday afternoon.
It will be a big occasion for Lachie Henderson and Sam Menegola who will play their 200th and 100th AFL games respectively. Whilst Irishman Zach Tuohy will pull on the hoops for the 100th time.
Shaun Higgins, Mark O'Connor, Esava Ratugolea and Max Holmes return to the side.
Jeremy Cameron is out for the Cats after injuring his hamstring in Geelong's win against Essendon. Skipper Joel Selwood and pressure forward Luke Dahlhaus have been managed, whilst Quinton Narkle has been omitted.
