CARLTON has named three changes for Saturday’s Round 22 clash. 

In addition to Marc Murphy’s milestone game and Brodie Kemp’s debut, Mitch McGovern will play his first game since a hamstring injury in Round 7. 

McGovern has been in strong form in the past fortnight, as one of Carlton’s best players in the VFL two weeks ago before a six-goal haul in a scratch match last weekend. 

He joins Murphy - who announced this weekend will be his 300th and final game - as well as Kemp, who was confirmed to play his first match in Navy Blue. 

The three inclusions return to the starting 22 in place of Liam Jones (knee), Harry McKay (shoulder) and Jack Silvagni (hip). 

Silvagni will join Jones and McKay on the sidelines after the decision was made this afternoon to rule the 23-year-old out of the Club’s two remaining games of the season in order to undergo surgery to correct a hip injury.

Levi Casboult, Corey Durdin, Lachie Fogarty and Sam Petrevski-Seton have been named as emergencies: one of the four will be confirmed as medical sub an hour before the bounce.
