JOEL Selwood and Billie Smedts are the inclusions in the Cats' team for Saturday's vital clash with Greater Western Sydney in Canberra.
Selwood returns after missing last weekend's win over the Western Bulldogs due to suspension.
Smedts is back in the AFL team for the first time since round two. He has been in brilliant form in the VFL in the last two weeks.
Veteran midfielder Mathew Stokes and emerging defender Jed Bews have both been omitted.
The pair have been named in Geelong's VFL squad that will take on Essendon at Simonds Stadium on Saturday.
Experienced defender Jared Rivers won't play at any level this weekend as he continues to manage the chronic knee problem that sidelined him last weekend.
