Ben Jensen 26 August 2010

By Ben Jensen (Olympos, Turkey) GEELONG will look to round off the season in style against West Coast at their home ground Skilled Stadium on Saturday. James Podsiadly is a big loss, with a two week suspension, likewise defender Josh Hunt is out with a week with his suspension but will be back for the first week of the finals series. Coming back though are experienced trio Cameron Ling, Brad Ottens and Andrew Mackie, with Tom Lonergan also returning to shore up the backline. Dan Menzel and fellow youngster Taylor Hunt were the two omissions.
