News
Max Rooke will play his first game for the season after being recalled to face the Fremantle Dockers on Saturday at Skilled Stadium.

Rooke had shoulder surgery at the end of last season, then battled hamstring issues during the pre-season. Now fully recovered and with four VFL games under his belt, Rooke returns to the senior line up.

Tom Hawkins drops back to the VFL. Hawkins has kicked 11 goals in six games since debuting in round two against Carlton. Geelong coach Mark Thompson flagged during the week that the need to give Hawkins a rest could be this week, and that’s how it played out.

Skipper Tom Harley will line up in the VFL for his first game since rupturing the tendon in his little finger in the opening round. Paul Chapman will miss for a second week with a hamstring injury.

Geelong’s team to face the Dockers

B: Andrew Mackie – Matthew Scarlett – Corey Enright
HB: David Johnson – Matthew Egan – Darren Milburn
C: David Wojcinski – Jimmy Bartel – James Kelly
HF: Joel Selwood – Nathan Ablett – Steve Johnson
F: Gary Ablett – Cameron Mooney – Travis Varcoe
Foll: Brad Ottens – Joel Corey – Cameron Ling
Int: Max Rooke, Mark Blake, Mathew Stokes, Kane Tenace
Emerg: Josh Hunt, Brent Prismall, Henry Playfair



Pretty happy with that.

Strong looking team. Shame Chappie's not available, but having Rooke back is excellent.

Very good player who will get his chance,there will be the inevitable injuries,loss of form etc...
We find ourselves in the fortunate position where form dictates who's in and not neccesity.

Re: Changes for Round 7

Re: Changes for Round 7

Happy with the team , looks great actually.
Glad Chappy has another week to rest hate to have him rushed back too early

 

[Team Extreme]

Re: Changes for Round 7

So i guess Mackie knee is better.
Im also happy Varcoe is still there, he has kicked 9 goals and at least one in every game.

Re: Changes for Round 7

The reporter's name is Josh Lyman? That's gold!! Shouldn't he be running the white house?

Anyways it's good to see Rooke back in the team and I'm glad the selectors haven't overburdened Tomahawk. He's been very quiet the last few weeks and a run in the reserves will do him a world of good. Also happy that King hasn't been fast tracked back into the team on the back of one good VFL performance. The Great Man, Blakey, is on fire these days and shouldn't be booted out to make way for King, nor should we select three rucks in the squad.

Great team, considering the weather report was for wet and windy conditions on Saturday. Hopefully Freo brought Warnock in and will get bogged down in the wet as we run rings around them.

Peter Bell has said every time he has come to Geelong its been freezing cold. Looks like things are not going to change this time either

I'm glad you mentioned Varcoe, I have loved his work since he's played in the seniors. His running is fantastic and he really understands the effort required around the ground, evidenced by his one-percenters. Good onya Trav!!

Good one. I think we're lucky that Jeff Farmer is out too - he seems to rip us a new one regularly.

I know what you mean Cam, Farmer is always a headache for us

yeah noticed that too.

Good also to see that Skilled Stadium specialist, M Stokes kept his spot.

I hope all freo players are listeneing to their captiain Bell about how cold and uncomfortable it is down at Geelong.
