NAMED to play.

Charlie Curnow has been included in the final team for Sunday’s trip to Launceston.

After being a late exclusion from the side last weekend due to bone bruising in his knee, Curnow has been picked in the 22 in place of Cameron Polson.

Speaking to media earlier today, senior coach Brendon Bolton said Curnow would be given every chance to prove his fitness for the clash with the Hawks.

"He's had some interruptions, so we'll give him right to the death knock to see if he comes up,” Bolton said.

Having been named on the extended bench, Polson will join David Cuningham, Jarrod Garlett and Matthew Kennedy as the emergencies.

Should Curnow play, he will form part of a tall forward line containing the likes of Levi Casboult, Mitch McGovern and Harry McKay.

Returning Hawthorn captain Ben Stratton looms as a likely match-up for McKay, while Carlton has once again named a settled back six.
