CARLTON has made a late change for Saturday's game against St Kilda.

Defender Jacob Weitering is a late withdrawal from the game, after being unable to overcome a low-grade groin injury sustained at training this week.

Darcy Lang gets the call up as his replacement.

Kennedy - who has been named at full forward - was best-afield last weekend, collecting 28 disposals and seven clearances in a strong response.

Prior to last weekend, he had played six consecutive games at senior level, averaging 1.5 goal a game in a new role up forward.

Dow also returns to the fold for his first senior game since Round 19, after a pair of strong performances in the VFL.

A moment to remember.

The second-year Blue has averaged 21 disposals in the past fortnight, showing his burst and energy around stoppages in a return to the midfield.

The duo replaces Liam Jones, who has been sidelined with a fractured larynx, and Darcy Lang (omitted).

In the absence of Jones, the likes of Lachie Plowman and Jacob Weitering are expected to go head-to-head with St Kilda’s key attacking duo of Tim Membrey and Josh Bruce.

Patrick Cripps lines up in familiar territory for his 100th game, named in the centre, while fellow milestone men Nic Newman (50 AFL games) and Dale Thomas (100 Carlton games) are named in the defensive half.

Out: Liam Jones (larynx), Jacob Weitering
