Show Preview
The eight will be shaped as Geelong host Essemdon in a Saturday night blockbuster. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:25pm (AEST).
The Cats sit eighth heading into this match, but such are the fine margins between teams at this stage of the season that victory will see them leapfrog the Bombers in fifth.
With Isaac Smith and Jeremy Cameron back in, the Cats are favourites at their home fortress, but the Bombers are in excellent form, and an upset here would just about be their best win of the season to date.
