Geelong's Round 5 clash with St Kilda at GMHBA Stadium has been moved to an earlier time slot.

The game, which is scheduled for the Thursday before the AFL grand final, will now begin at 5.10pm.

It will be the Cats' last game at home before the ICC T20 World Cup heads to the stadium, with the team hopeful of a strong home crowd to cheer them on against the Saints.

The Cats and Saints have been two of the big improvers in Season 7, both winning their opening two clashes as they look to move up the ladder order this season.

The West Coast Eagles and Fremantle game at Optus Stadium has also been moved forward two hours - now set to begin 3.10pm AEST (1.10pm local time).

Fans who have already purchased their tickets to the matches will be able to access the rescheduled games with their existing tickets.

Fans who are no longer able to attend the new time slots can visit the Ticketmaster website to receive a refund.
