Andrew Carrazzo and Jeremy Laidler will both be out of action for up to two months as a result of injuries sustained in the Blues loss to Essendon in round 4. Carrazzo had surgery on Monday to repair his fractured shoulder blade while Laidler had surgery on his knee on Tuesday.
Chris Yarran is the third player to be ruled out of Friday night’s important clash. Yarran injured his toe against the Bombers and while it was hoped he may be available, he will join Carrazzo and Laidler on the sidelines.
Brett Ratten confirmed earlier in the week that both Andrew Walker and Dennis Armfield would resume this week.
The big question is who else will be selected and will there only be three changes to the Carlton team for what is a very important game.
Full selection details will be available on the Carlton Website at 6.25 this afternoon, including selection news feature on CFCTV with General Manager Football Operations, Andrew McKay.
