CARLTON has named its extended squad of 26 - featuring five inclusions - for Sunday night’s King’s Birthday Rivalry Clash.
After missing last weekend with a broken hand, Marc Pittonet is among the Blues who could potentially feature in the 252nd clash with the arch rival.
With the final team to be announced at 5pm tomorrow, both Pittonet and Jack Silvagni - who was subbed off last weekend with a hip injury - have been named in the extended squad.
Rivalry, reset, risk and reward. 🤝

Zac Fisher and Lochie O’Brien have been omitted.
Mitch McGovern could feature in his 100th AFL game, having crossed to the Blues from the Crows at the end of the 2018 season.
