The Roos leapt out of the blocks in last season's clash against the Cats before running out 62-point winners, led by three goals by ruck Emma King and a dominating midfield performance from Jas Garner.
The Kangaroos will travel to their second home in Tasmania in round five of the 2022 season, hosting Fremantle at North Hobart Oval.
Pride Round is set to be played in round three, with Indigenous Round to follow in round eight of the 10-round season. Round 10 match-ups have not been released, while the date and time for the Kangaroos' round nine trip to face reigning premiers Brisbane in Queensland is also yet to be confirmed.
A string of blockbuster matches lie ahead for the Kangaroos, including a mouth-watering Friday night clash with fierce rivals Collingwood in round seven.
