Brisbane Lions v Geelong Cats; AFL 2024 round 6 match preview and team lists

Brisbane Lions v Geelong Cats, AFL 2024 round 6, match preview and team lists
Ben Jensen
PATRICK DANGERFIELD has been named to return for the Cats against the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba this Saturday night, along with fellow 300-gamer Tom Hawkins, key defender Jake Kolodjashnij and promising young ruckman Toby Conway. Making way are fellow big men Rhys Stanley (managed) and Shannon Neale (omitted), last week’s debutante Connor O’Sullivan (omitted), and managed Zach Tuohy. Whilst it’s good to see Conway get another run we’re sad to see Neale miss out after he appeared to more than take his opportunity last week; then again Conway is more a ready replacement for Stanley and Neale was in for Hawkins so we see the logic.
