CARLTON has named its 26-man squad for Sunday’s clash with Gold Coast.

The Blues could see Nic Newman and Marc Pittonet potentially come back in the side after missing the last two games, following respective hamstring and hand injuries sustained against Sydney in Round 11.

For the second straight week, potential debutant Jaxon Binns has been included, as have David Cuningham and Lachie Fogarty, who starred at VFL level last Sunday.

Should Cuningham be selected, it will be the midfielder’s first game at senior level since 16 May 2021: the final team will be announced tomorrow at 5pm.

Jesse Motlop and Jack Silvagni have been omitted. Meanwhile, George Hewett - who has missed the last two games with concussion - will return via the Carlton Reserves in Saturday's game against Werribee

Harry McKay will play his 100th game this weekend, six years after making his senior debut and eight years after making his way to IKON Park with pick No.10 in the 2015 AFL Draft.

It’s looking like a double milestone weekend for the Blues, with Tom De Koning also named for his 50th AFL game.
