The reigning premier led White Hills last week at half-time, although a poor third quarter ensured its second consecutive defeat, following a shock loss to Leitchville-Gunbower in round five.
Currently in fifth place on the ladder, the Cats have endured a rocky start to their flag defence, already two games behind the fourth-placed White Hills.
A third straight loss this week could see them fall potentially out of the top five, given they are currently level with Elmore and Colbinabbin on wins.
The Cats will make the trip out to Barrack Reserve in Heathcote on Saturday afternoon, with the opening bounce at 2:30pm.

Lockington Bamawm United will be going for its second win of the season when it faces Heathcote on Saturday.
The Cats recorded the first win of the season two weeks ago against Leitchville-Gunbower, and the possibility of a second win presents itself this week against the Saints.
Heathcote sits level with LBU on wins, also having beaten Leitchville-Gunbower, although has a much healthier percentage.
