GWS GIANTS vs Geelong Cats Preview
The Giants return home full of confidence after knocking off ladder leaders Fremantle, extending an impressive recent record against Geelong that now stands at four consecutive victories. The Cats, meanwhile, are searching for an immediate response after a heavy defeat to Brisbane raised fresh questions about their premiership credentials. Jeremy Cameron’s form has attracted attention, but Geelong’s experienced core has repeatedly shown an ability to rebound after disappointing performances. GWS dominated at clearance level last week despite losing the hit-outs comprehensively, and that battle around stoppages could again decide the result. If Geelong gains control through the ruck, it should create enough opportunities to halt the Giants’ winning streak.
