Geelong Cats vs Essendon Bombers live scores – AFL 2012 Round 17

This weeks Friday night match is between the Geelong Cats and Essendon Bombers. The opening bounce will commence at 7:50pm with the game being played at Etihad Stadium.

The last time these two teams met was in Round 15 last year in which Essendon won by four points at Etihad in what was a massive upset.

Geelong have only made the one change to their squad with Jordan Murdoch replacing Allen Christensen.

Essendon’s team will be boosted with the inclusion of Angus Monfries and Stewart Crameri this week but will be without Kyle Reimers and Michael Hibberd.

Essendon are favourites to win but it should be a very close match like these two teams regularly have.

WHERE AND WHEN: Etihad Stadium, Friday July 20, 7.50pm
LAST TIME: Essendon 18.7 (115) d Geelong 16.15 (111), round 15, 2011 at Etihad Stadium
