July 29th 2009 01:01
GEELONG midfielder James Kelly will miss a further two weeks with a hamstring injury.
Kelly suffered the injury in the Cats' six-point loss to St Kilda in round 14 and was expected to miss two to three weeks but he has re-injured the hamstring and will not be back until at least round 20 when the Cats face Sydney at ANZ Stadium.
Meanwhile, Geelong coach Mark Thompson said key defenders Matthew Scarlett (adductor) and Harry Taylor (groin) would be out for one to two weeks.
Skipper Tom Harley (knee) will have a fitness test later in the week while classy forward Steve Johnson is a certainty to return from a hip injury which has sidelined him for the past four matches.
In further good news for last year's grand finalists, ruckman Brad Ottens is set to make his comeback from a knee injury sustained in round two in the VFL this week.
