Geelong has made five changes for the Saturday night clash with St Kilda at Simonds Stadium.

After losing a thriller to Adelaide last week the Cats have brought into the side Steve Johnson, George Horlin-Smith, Taylor Hunt, Nathan Vardy and Mitch Brown.

Out of the side are Jimmy Bartel (suspended), Mark Blicavs (managed), Josh Hunt (shin), Jesse Stringer (knee) and Jordan Murdoch (omitted).

Johnson returns to the Cats line up after serving a one week suspension whilst Taylor Hunt returns after being a late withdrawal against the Crows. Horlin-Smith, Brown and Vardy all performed strongly in last week’s VFL clash with Collingwood.

The game kicks of at 7.40pm with tin shakers around the ground collection for the Casey Tutungi Future Fund.
