Geelong has named its VFL side to face Coburg at Simonds Stadium on Saturday.
First-year speedster Brandan Parfitt makes his long-awaited return after suffering a bad hamstring injury against Collingwood in round six of the AFL season.
VFL-listed big man Jack Berry comes in to the side to make his VFL debut after being elevated from the VFL development list earlier in the week.
St Mary’s local Harry Kol will also make his debut after nearly 18 months out with hip and ankle injuries.
The VFL Cats will this weekend play the first of four consecutive matches at Simonds Stadium.
