CARLTON has named eight potential inclusions for Sunday’s home game against North Melbourne on Marvel Stadium.

The Blues could receive a boost in the form of Charlie Curnow, who is in line to return for brother Ed’s milestone game.

Curnow has been included in the squad for a potential return alongside fellow inclusions Jarrod Garlett, Matthew Lobbe, Andrew Phillips, Angus Schumacher, Will Setterfield, Liam Stocker and Tom Williamson.

Setterfield is eligible for selection after the end of his two-match suspension, while Angus Schumacher and Liam Stocker are potential debutants.

One Blue who won’t feature will be Mitch McGovern, who has been ruled out of Sunday’s game with hamstring tightness.

“Mitch has developed some tightness in his right hamstring post-game that has not settled like we had hoped it would as the week has gone on,” Director of High Performance Andrew Russell said.

 “We assessed Mitch during our main training session today and after that test we made the decision to not include him in the squad for Sunday so that we can allow time for that tightness to settle.

McGovern is joined by Matthew Kreuzer (adductor), Nic Newman (knee) and Kade Simpson (hamstring) as the exclusions.

The final team will be announced at 5pm on Friday.

In: Charlie Curnow, Jarrod Garlett, Matthew Lobbe, Andrew Phillips, Angus Schumacher, Will Setterfield, Liam Stocker, Tom Williamson
Out: Matthew Kreuzer (adductor), Mitch McGovern (hamstring), Nic Newman (knee), Kade Simpson (hamstring)
