CALLUM Moore will become Carlton player No.1214 on Saturday afternoon when he makes his Navy Blue debut against North Melbourne.
The former Tiger is a late inclusion for the Round 8 clash with North, coming into the side for the injured Harry McKay.
McKay is a late withdrawal from today's clash with North Melbourne after he experienced a hyper extension to his knee training at the Club's hotel, away from the main group on Thursday.
Moore was the final player on Carlton's 2020 list as a supplementary selection period signing, earning his spot as a Blue on the back of strong pre-season form.
He has been a regular standout in the Blues' recent reserves scratch match, playing predominantly up forward with stints as a second ruckman: his overhead marking and his pace are his key attributes.
The 23-year-old played eight games in four seasons for Richmond, kicking five goals: his best performance came against Essendon in front of over 80,000 people in the Dreamtime at the 'G clash.
