Geelong will look to bounce back in Round 10, as they head to 'The City of Churches' for a clash with Yartapuulti (Port Adelaide) at the Adelaide Oval.
It is a road-trip that has brought plenty of success for the Cats in recent history, winning six of their last seven matches at Adelaide Oval dating back to 2022.
Geelong has already ventured west once this season, defeating Adelaide by 19-points at the venue in Gather Round this year, looking to extend their strong record against the Power this Saturday.
Take a first look at everything you need to know ahead of the Cats Round 10 clash.
KEY DETAILS
2025 AFL Season - Round 10
Yartapuulti v Geelong Cats
Adelaide Oval, Adelaide - Kaurna
Saturday May 17th, 4.15pm (AEST)
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Geelong: Shaun Mannagh
Mannagh continues to piece together a strong 2025 campaign, kicking another two goals and gathering 15 disposals against GWS on Sunday.
On bigger grounds like the MCG and Adelaide Oval, Mannagh has been injected around stoppages as an extra midfielder, highlighted by his performances against Carlton and Collingwood where he collected 15 clearances across the two games.
Mannagh was also among the best players on the ground in Geelong's last meeting with Port Adelaide, collecting 23 disposals and booting three goals in the 2024 Qualifying Final at Adelaide Oval.
Yartapuulti: Connor Rozee
Rozee has been given a different role in 2025 and has been one of the Power's most dangerous players, winning the Showdown Medal last weekend after collecting 32 disposals and a goal against Adelaide.
Providing run and carry off half back, Yartapuulti's captain has averaged 29 disposals and close to 600 metres gained per game, while also adding five score involvements and four intercept possessions each match.
Rozee also averages a goal per game in nine career appearances against Geelong, proving that he is someone the Cats will need to keep an eye on this weekend.
RECENT HISTORY
The Cats and Power have been a relatively even match-up over the last five years, with Geelong winning six of the last ten games against Yartapuulti dating back to the 2020 AFL season.
Geelong triumphed by 84-points in their most recent outing against the Power in last year's Qualifying Final, while also defeating Yartapuulti in two of the last three clashes at Adelaide Oval.
Taking a look at a more extended history between the two sides, the Cats hold the ascendancy dating back to 2005 winning 24 of the last 31 matches against the Power.
