Mark O'Connor is set to return to Geelong's line-up for Sunday's clash with North Melbourne at GMHBA Stadium.
O'Connor was a late withdrawal in last week's clash with Sydney, but has been named in the Cats' squad as they prepare to celebrate fellow Irish star Zach Tuohy's record-breaking game.
Tuohy will play his 265th AFL match - the most games by an Irish-born player in VFL/AFL history.
Jed Bews (knee) and Jake Kolodjashnij (adductor) will miss the game, but both are expected to be available next week, while Isaac Smith is being managed.
Jeremy Cameron (concussion) has been ruled out medically for Sunday's game, but got through training on Thursday and is expected to be available for next week's clash.
Geelong will name its final team on Friday evening, with the substitute to be confirmed one hour prior to the match on Sunday.
