CARLTON is set to take a settled starting side into Grand Final rematch on Sunday afternoon.
The Blues have named its two inclusions on an extended bench, with Charlotte Wilson and Courtney Jones added to the 21-woman squad.
After a week on the sidelines through illness, second-year Blue Wilson could return after playing the first two games of the season following a strong debut year.
New Blue Jones is a potential debutant, having pressed her case for selection after strong form in a recent VFLW practice match.
Should Jones be selected, she will become the sixth member of Carlton’s 2019 draft class to debut inside four weeks.
Jess Edwards has also retained her spot in the side after making her first appearance in 2020 against the Western Bulldogs. Jayde Van Dyk will miss another week through ankle injury.
The final team will be announced on Friday at 4pm.
