Big V Geelong Preview (Round 16)
Geelong Lady Cats (3-13)
Big V State
Championship
vs.
The Lady Cats will
take an extremely undersized line-up into their penultimate match of the season
against the finals bound Falcons. Co-captain Sarah De Grandi is unavailable,
while veteran big Lauren Green’s been booked in for season-ending hand surgery.
Maddi Taylor’s expected to return from a back injury, while talented junior
Ellie Stevens will be added to the roster. Chantelle Brockett will shoulder
much of the inside work along with Amy Wormald in De Grandi’s absence. Brockett
has been the Lady Cats top scorer in their last two outings. However she has
fouled out in both of those, in just 13 minutes of playing time on each
occasion.

The weekend wins over
Werribee and
Big V Youth League Two
vs.
The Youth League squad
caught a welcome break on Sunday, with Altona’s win over Whittlesea sending the
Cats back into the all-important second spot behind Hawthorn. Dave Brown’s
roster has been without MVP contender Steve Wiasak for the best part of two
months due to a range of illness and unavailability, and in that time has gone
4-1. His expected return for the remaining three regular season fixtures should
see the Cats get first crack at Hawthorn in the qualifying final in August.
