Final teams in as Cats host Lions in blockbuster. Follow it LIVE
Follow all the action from the clash between Geelong and Brisbane at GMHBA Stadium
FAMILIAR foes Geelong and Brisbane open round 17 in a clash that could shape the top-four race.
The Cats return from a bye looking to get its campaign back on track after three defeats by a combined 14 points in the four matches before the break.
They could steal a march on the Lions in the race for a double chance with a victory at their home fortress this week, before a favourable run home that includes seven matches against sides currently sitting outside the top six.
Brisbane sent a warning to the competition as it returned from a bye to blow away Sydney with the sort of controlled, defence-focused performance that has become a trademark in the second half of recent campaigns.

Geelong has selected their team for Thursday's important clash with Brisbane at GMHBA Stadium
Geelong has received a timely boost with the return of a star duo, bolstering the Cats' side for Thursday night's blockbuster clash with Brisbane at GMHBA Stadium.
Bailey Smith and Tom Stewart have both been named and will rejoin the starting line-up, with the pair set to add important experience and quality to the Geelong side.
Stewart returns after missing the last two games before Geelong's mid-season bye, while Smith has also been named after missing the clash with Fremantle through illness.
Jack Bowes and George Stevens come out of the team, with the pair both omitted for Thursday's clash.

‘We are quizzing the medical staff and Jeremy’: Cameron’s form slump deepens as Lions win blockbuster
Geelong coach Chris Scott says star forward Jeremy Cameron is capable of performing despite the lingering effects of the broken arm he suffered in last year’s grand final.
Cameron did not get his first kick until the final quarter of Thursday night’s loss to the Lions and had no impact on the contest, finishing the match goalless and with just four disposals. He appeared to favour his heavily strapped arm during the warm-up but was not in obvious discomfort during the match.
However, it is the third time in the past four matches Cameron, who is regarded as one of the toughest and most talented players in the game, has had fewer than 10 disposals.
