GWS has been smashed by accidents and can battle to search out match-ups for Geelong’s key forwards on Saturday, however Toby Greene has a couple of concepts.
The Giants captain says he is not going to be afraid to get bodily with former teammate Jeremy Cameron ought to the star ahead push up the bottom and get in his path.
The duo was inseparable over 9 seasons in Sydney and stay shut mates, with Greene saying Cameron will probably be a part of his 2 hundredth recreation celebrations after the pair face off at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday.
“Yeah definitely, I’ll have a few words with him,” Greene stated.
“Hopefully he drops in the hole (in Geelong’s defence) – I saw in one of the clips he was getting back into the backline … but I’m looking forward to playing against him.
“He’s still one of my best mates now, and I’ll probably see him after the game as well.
“He’s a special player, but hopefully we stop him on the weekend.”
The Giants could have a tricky process attempting to counter Cameron and the highly effective Tom Hawkins, with Sam Taylor, Harry Himmelberg and Nick Haynes all absent via harm as they try and register their fourth win of the season.
The in-form Jack Buckley is probably going the person for Cameron because of his spectacular pace, however that may go away Lachlan Keeffe and Callum Brown to deal with Hawkins, who has been in irresistible contact with 24 objectives from his final six video games, together with a haul of eight final month in opposition to Essendon.
Losing Josh Kelly to a hamstring harm additional complicates issues for the Giants, however Greene says the harm disaster is nothing new to the taking part in group.
He stated the Giants would relish the chance to say a giant scalp with their backs to the wall.
In August 2021, they went to Geelong with an undermanned group and knocked over the third-placed Cats to the tune of 19 factors, as Greene starred with a game-high 4 objectives.
“We had a similar situation a couple of years ago where we had a lot of younger boys in the team that night – you lose a lot of experience this week again with those three boys,” he stated.
“We’ll be full of excitement and energy, and if we play the way we think we can, we’ll be a good chance.”
