The VFL Cats have named an extended squad of 31 for their fourth practice match this Saturday against Collingwood at Simonds Stadium.

The squad includes the AFL side’s round 2 extended interchange bench and will be reduced to 27 players on Saturday afternoon.  

The VFL Cats will look to continue on their winning streak after consecutive practice match wins over Richmond and North Ballarat in recent weeks.

Rookie James Parsons will play his first game in the blue and white hoops after working through a modified pre season program.

Both Geelong and Collingwood will only have 23 active players at one time and both have the ability to sub four players in and out at half time. The sides will play four 20-minute quarters plus time on.
