With a challenging month of football to come, the unbeaten Cats will meet this week to determine the best course of action for Patrick Dangerfield after his second hamstring injury for the year.

Geelong will meet early this week to determine the rehabilitation program for skipper Patrick Dangerfield after a hamstring strain against the Blues forced him to the sidelines for the second time this season.

The latest setback could require a rethink but with the Cats unbeaten after seven rounds and the midfield stepping up, they can afford to take their time. The Cats have had a good run with injury, with Cam Guthrie returning in impressive style against Carlton while Tom Stewart is likely to be available having missed the match with concussion.“Hammy’s a little sore this morning, but that’s OK,” he said. “A few weeks of rehab and back into it.”

The Cats also successfully rehabilitated Jeremy Cameron when he suffered a series of hamstring injuries in 2022 which kept him sidelined before finals.
