Who they play twice: Fremantle, Hawthorn, Collingwood, Adelaide, GWS

Why it's difficult: The Cats play just seven games at Simonds Stadium this season as the club tries to finish it's redevelopment ahead of 2018.

Why it's easy: Geelong end the season with their final five games in Victoria, and host their two toughest opponents in that period (Swans, Giants) at Simonds Stadium.
