AFL ROUND 11 2007: ADELAIDE V GEELONG; CATS UNCHANGED; TEAM LISTS PLUS TV / RADIO BROADCAST DETAILS
Ben Jensen 8 June 2007

By Ben Jensen ADELAIDE V GEELONG MARAUDING GEELONG, fresh from beltings of St Kilda, Port Adelaide and West Coast, take on the Adelaide Crows at AAMI Stadium this Sunday at high noon with an unchanged lineup. For the Cats Josh Hunt, Joel Selwood and Tom 'Tomahawk' Hawkins are named as emergencies. For Adelaide Ian Perrie and Brent Reilly have been forced out through injury while Ken McGregor and Luke Jericho are in. McGregor hasn't played since round 1.

Geelong selectors face another tough task deciding whether to bring back Tom Hawkins, Josh Hunt or Joel Selwood for their second trip to Adelaide in three games. Gary Ablett Junior and Jimmy Bartel are both in top form, and the Cats perhaps surprisingly head into this match as favourites with the bookies. This is Geelong's third 'away' game in succession.

In the VFL, Geelong host Western Bulldogs affiliate Werribee Tigers at Skilled Stadium on Saturday, a game to be telecast on ABC TV at 1PM AEST.
