CARLTON has named two inclusions for tomorrow’s clash with the Western Bulldogs.
The Blues have recalled Jack Silvagni and Zac Williams for the Round 8 contest at Marvel Stadium.
It will be Silvagni’s first game in just under a month after injuring his shoulder in a game-winning tackle against Gold Coast in Round 4.
Williams will also return to the line-up after missing the win over Essendon with soreness.
Silvagni will take on his role up forward, while Williams has been named across a half-back flank.
Mitch McGovern is out of the team due to the hamstring injury sustained last weekend, while Paddy Dow has been omitted.
Marc Murphy is expected to miss one more week due to neck soreness.
The milestone man Liam Jones has been named at full back in his 150th game, which comes against his old side.
Last week’s inclusions Matthew Owies and Luke Parks have maintained their spot in the side, named up forward and on the bench respectively.
After being activated as medical sub last weekend, Sam Petrevski-Seton has been named as an emergency. The Blues will name their sub from their emergency list (Dow, Petrevski-Seton, Tom De Koning, Will Setterfield) an hour before tomorrow’s game.
Tomorrow's game at Marvel Stadium begins at 3:20pm, with the VFL side to commence the day's proceedings from midday at Whitten Oval. Fans in Victoria can watch both games in Victoria back-to-back on Channel 7.
