Dylan Buckley, although not officially a Carlton player until he is selected with Carlton’s third round selection, number 62 overall, in Thursday’s National Draft, was one of the new faces at Carlton’s first training session at Visy Park today.

Nick Heyne, who was previously on St Kilda’s list, also joined the Carlton players on the track at Visy Park. Nick has been given permission to train with the Blues after being delisted by the Saints following the 2011 season.

Other new faces at the first session included new Assistant Coach Paul Williams and new Fitness and Conditioning Coach Joel Hocking.

While not on the training track, Carlton’s new General Manager Football Operations, Andrew McKay, was also a new face as the Blues commenced preparations for the 2012 season. Andrew officially commenced in his new role last Friday with today being like a first day with all the players and coaches returning to work.

It will be a busy first week for McKay with training commencing and then the National Draft in Sydney on Thursday evening and two more new faces to welcome to Carlton for 2012.
