St Kilda has made one change heading into Saturday's prime-time clash against the Cats, with Hugo Garcia returning to the line-up off the back of a breakout VFL outing last weekend.
Garcia, taken at pick No. 50 at last year's draft, pieced together a game-winning 34 disposals, 12 tackles, nine clearances and three goals over Essendon to thrust his name back into selection calculations; the young Saint coming into the side in place of Angus McLennan (omitted).
McLennan, Tom Campbell and Ben Paton have been named as emergencies, while Mattaes Phillipou will be unavailable due to illness after he was withdrawn from last week's game.
Saturday night will see the club celebrate Saints Say Thanks Round, with the red, white and black to wear the fan-favourite Stickman guernsey to salute the support of members and fans across the course of the season.
St Kilda and Geelong will meet on Saturday 17 August at Marvel Stadium, commencing at 7:30pm.
