First Joel Selwood, now another two Geelong players will miss the final quarter against the Dockers.
Selwood was knocked out in the opening minute of the match after an accidental head clash with Haydne Ballantyne.
Darcy Lang now off the ground with a tracksuit on. Looks like we've only got one fit man on the bench. #AFLCatsFreo

Then Geelong defender Tom Stewart, who has been extremely impressive in his debut season in the AFL, playing 11 games, was ruled out at half-time after copping a heavy knock to the face in a marking contest in the second quarter.

Midfielder Darcy Lang has now also been ruled out for the final quarter due to a leg injury.
We're already two men down - J Selwood (concussion) and Stewart (face) already out of the game. Now Lang hobbling badly.#AFLCatsFreo

It will now take a monumental effort for Geelong to win, who are now down to one rotation for the final quarter with Fremantle leading by 19 points.
