Geelong Cats vs GWS Giants Preview
Pressure is mounting for both Geelong and GWS after some underwhelming performances. Geelong’s trip to Darwin was forgettable, conceding 164 points, while GWS struggles with commitment and defensive composure.
Back at the Cattery, Geelong holds the advantage, especially with likely inclusions bolstering key areas. Clearance work favors the Cats, and their smaller midfield should dominate.
GWS’s swift running patterns will be tested on the narrow turf, but they must improve their defensive-to-offensive transitions for a chance.
Confidence is low for both teams, but Geelong’s personnel changes offer hope. Despite their struggles, they’re in a better position than perceived.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Geelong Cats to win at $1.46 odds.
