GEELONG will welcome back star ruckman Brad Ottens after he was named in the Cats’ side to play Carlton on Saturday night.

Ottens has not played since being a key player in Geelong’s 2007 grand final victory.

The Geelong match committee has made three changes after the Cats’ shock belting at the hands of Collingwood last week, dropping two players and replacing the injured Josh Hunt.

Ottens is joined in the side by Shannon Byrnes and Max Rooke, replacing Hunt, Ryan Gamble and Trent West.

Check out this week’s Ask Hutchy for Hutchy’s thoughts on how the Cats are travelling.

Have your say, FootyHeads!
