Geelong has selected a near full strength line-up for their clash with Collingwood on Friday.

Returning to the Cats side are vice-captain Jimmy Bartel, Josh Caddy, Allen Christensen, Corey Enright, Billie Smedts, Mitch Duncan, Jared Rivers and Harry Taylor from the side that defeated North Melbourne.

Amongst the outs are youngsters Joel Hamling, Shane Kersten, Jordan Schroder and Jackson Thurlow.

James Kelly and Steve Johnson, who will both miss the Cats round one clash with Hawthorn, will not play in the game but may line up for the club's VFL side on Saturday also against Collingwood.

The match on Friday will kick off at 4pm at Simonds Stadium. Members will get free entry on presentation of a 2013 membership card whilst non-members can gain entry for $5.
