Show Preview

The Geelong Cats will look to flex their muscle over the hapless North Melbourne Kangaroos as Round 5 wraps up at GMHBA Stadium. Stay up to date with their AFL clash with live scores on The Roar from 4:40pm (AEST).

Geelong had looked wobbly for most of the season and were finally made to bleed last week after going down to Melbourne. Coming off back-to-back unconvincing wins, the Cats looked a class below that of the Demons in a performance that raised several question marks over their 2021 ambitions. However, with big names returning, they’ll back themselves to right the ship.

It helps that it’s a winless Kangaroos side they’re up against this evening. North Melbourne’s first three quarters last week were the best footy they’ve played all season, but they were still blown away in the last quarter to go down by 41. There appears to be no way forward for North other than to play the kids and cop the beltings in what’s shaping as a wooden spoon campaign.

The Cats have won the last six meetings between these sides, including a 33-point triumph in their only game last season. The Kangaroos have lost seven of their last eight matches at Kardinia Park which, admittedly, is a better record than what many other clubs can claim.
