MARC Pittonet has been elevated into the starting line-up for tonight’s clash with Geelong.
Named for his first game of the season, the ruckman will feature in the 22 and partner Tom De Koning in the clash with the reigning premiers after a late change to the Carlton team.
Pittonet takes the place of Jack Martin, who will miss due to calf tightness. The Club will further assess Martin’s progress early next week before determining a return-to-play timeline.
Lochie O’Brien has been confirmed as the substitute for the second straight week.
