GEELONG looks set to be bolstered by the return of veteran defender Darren Milburn and tagger Cameron Ling for Saturday night's clash against Richmond at Telstra Dome.
Milburn was a late withdrawal from last Friday night's blockbuster against Hawthorn with illness while Ling has missed the past fortnight with a fractured cheekbone.
Geelong football operations manager Neil Balme said Milburn and Ling were strong chances to play against the Tigers.
"There is almost no doubt about Darren and Lingy," Balme said.
"Lingy trained really well last week, so we would be very surprised if he didn't come up."
Balme also said star midfielder Gary Ablett Jnr and hard-running defender David Wojcinski who have been sidelined for the past fortnight with a sprained ankle and achilles strain respectively were in line for a recall.
"With the other two [Ablett and Wojcinski] we are confident of both of them, but there is no certainty on either of them, it just depends on whether they are sore or not."
