In a match characterized by low scoring, Tom Hawkins and Ollie Henry both managed to score two goals, while Mitch Duncan, Tom Stewart, Gryan Miers, and Zach Tuohy each recorded more than 25 disposals. This group of players is expected to have more freedom and opportunities to score in the upcoming game against North Melbourne. The Kangaroos have suffered 13 consecutive losses and are likely to face challenges in terms of securing possession. In their recent 66-point loss to the Adelaide Crows, Nick Larkey contributed with three goals, and Tarryn Thomas showed early promise with a couple of goals. However, North Melbourne lacked sufficient ball winners, placing much of the workload on their first-year player, Harry Sheezel, who managed to accumulate 31 disposals.
Unless caretaker coach Brett Ratten can inspire his team to deliver an extraordinary performance, it is difficult to envision North Melbourne achieving an upset victory to end their 10-game losing streak against the Cats. The most recent encounter between the two teams resulted in a staggering 112-point margin in favour of Geelong, and this weekend's game will be held at the same venue, GMHBA Stadium.
