CARLTON will be sweating on the fitness of key players Marc Murphy and Matthew Kreuzer for its clash with Port Adelaide at the MCG on Saturday afternoon.
Kreuzer injured his ankle in the Blues’ 20-point loss to Collingwood in Round 14, while skipper Murphy hasn’t played since Round 9 with a foot issue.
Levi Casboult was also a late out for the Magpies clash, badly dislocating his finger in the warm-up.
Jarrod Picket kicked three goals in the VFL on the weekend, while Nick Graham could earn a recall with 35 touches and 10 tackles.
Andrew Phillips will be in line to replace Kreuzer if he doesn’t respond in time, with Harry McKay a likely replacement for Casboult.
