Seven New Blues
The Blues will reveal seven new faces at the Dome tomorrow night.
New recruits Chris Yarran and Mitch Robinson, will be joined in the squad by pre-season selection Chris Johnson, first year rookie Jeff Garlett, former Port Adelaide player Greg Bentley and second and third year rookies Aaron Josepha and Sam Jacobs.
"You like to get the kids in for a taste, especially knowing that in-season it's hard to do that sometimes now," Carlton Coach Brett Ratten said after training at Visy Park.
"If we're going to improve as a group, then maybe some of the kids in their first year might not get a go."
"We want to give them a taste and let them know what the expectation is and how quick AFL footy is and then maybe manage them through the rest of the NAB series then into the home-and-away."
