King will provide the play-by-play description of each match, with Cranston – who played 21 games for the Cats in a 60-game AFLW career – providing expert comments.

“We look forward to following the Cats closely as they continue to strive for their maiden AFLW premiership,” Geelong Broadcasters General Manager Rachel Patterson said.

“After the success of their 2023 campaign, we know coach Dan Lowther and captain Meghan McDonald have the team ready for another big push for finals this year.

“With insights from Rocky – an early season pioneer – joining Kingy in the commentary box, we are thrilled to deliver all the action on krockfootball.live this season.”
