THREE inclusions, three milestones.

Carlton has named its team to take on Port Adelaide at the MCG tomorrow night.

The Blues have made four changes to their starting line-up, welcoming back Mitch McGovern for his first game of the season.

Zac Williams and Tom Williamson will also return to the fold, while Matthew Kennedy will be in the starting 22 for the first time in 2021.

After a last-quarter cameo as medical sub last week, the game will also be Kennedy’s 50th AFL game.

It will be one of three significant milestones for the Blues tomorrow night, with co-captain Sam Docherty to play his 100th game for the Carlton Football Club.

Eddie Betts will also achieve another Navy Blue landmark when he equals Andrew Walker’s record for most games played by an Indigenous Blue.

Jack Silvagni is out of the side due to a shoulder injury, while Luke Parks is also unavailable. The first-year Blue has been ruled out due to a low-grade hamstring strain sustained during training on Thursday afternoon.

Paddy Dow and Will Setterfield have been omitted.

The medical sub will be one of Carlton's four emergencies, with Dow and Setterfield joined by David Cuningham and Matthew Owies.
