    Injury Update | Round 22

    Director of High Performance, Andrew Russell, provides an update on Carlton's AFL injury list prior to Round 22.

    AFL

Blue focus:

The Power have an excellent intercept average for the season, and with the Blues’ top interceptor in Liam Jones out injured, it’ll be up to Jacob Weitering and new Blue Kemp to take on the marking contests.

Carlton and Port Adelaide don’t have much between them in terms of marks inside 50, but with the absence of Harry McKay, Mitch McGovern and Charlie Curnow will be the main targets in attack.

Ollie Wines and Willem Drew have been bulls in the midfield for Port, leading disposals, tackles and contested possessions for their side.

They’ll be a challenging matchup Sam Walsh and Ed Curnow, but the pair have a habit of pulling off the biggest of challenges.

Mitch McGovern will return to the Blues after a very interrupted season with injury to his hamstring.

McGovern will make a big impact to the forward line in the absence of McKay, working with Charlie Curnow to create aerial contests.

Down the other end, Brodie Kemp will play his first game for the Blues since being drafted in 2019.

Plagued with injury, Kemp has produced consistent form in the VFL, allowing him to hone his defensive craft and be ready to strut his stuff at the AFL level for the first time.
