BRISBANE will be looking for its first win of the season at the Gabba when it hosts the undefeated Geelong.

Last year's beaten Grand Finalists are well on the way to turning their season around after their shock 0-3 start, chalking up their first win against North Melbourne before an impressive victory over Melbourne last week.

The Lions (2-3) still have plenty of fine-tuning to do, especially in their forward half, but now have an opportunity to do that in more familiar surroundings while also beginning to rebuild their Gabba fortress.

Geelong (5-0) faces its biggest test of its campaign so far after doing all that it has needed to against arguably pedestrian opponents so far this season.

LIONS v CATS Follow it LIVE

The Cats will now need to flick a switch to bring their best each week with the clash against the Lions the first in an extended stretch against top-four hopefuls.

The Cats have recalled Patrick Dangerfield and Tom Hawkins, while Zach Tuohy and Rhys Stanley will be rested. Jake Kolodjashnij has also been named, while Jarryd Lyons is into Brisbane's 23 to replace Zac Bailey (ankle).

In the final game of the day, West Coast and Fremantle lock horns in the Western Derby.

The Eagles (1-4) have not had much to celebrate in recent seasons but will be flying high coming into the Derby after their stirring victory over Richmond.

West Coast's relatively comfortable win over a depleted Tigers side was built on a blend of the old and the new that showed enough to suggest that it might even be able to keep pace with the Dockers for the first time since 2021.

EAGLES v DOCKERS Follow it LIVE

Fremantle (3-2) has let its commanding start to the season slip with a pair of narrow defeats, while the goals have dried up with only nine majors in each of its past three matches.

The Eagles might not be the pushovers that they have been in recent seasons, but the Dockers will still expect to equal their longest winning streak of six with another victory over their crosstown rivals.

Dom Sheed is back for his first game of the season to bolster the Eagles' midfield, while Matt Taberner is managed for the Dockers, who have brought in Sean Darcy after a knee injury.
