Carlton rising star Jagga Smith is on the verge of a three-year contract extension with the Blues. Was due to come out of contract at the end of 2027, but the new deal would take him through to 2030. Story 👉 afl.com.au/news/1484154/y…

@Janissary1299 Trained fully and looked comfortable running

@blues_nuff Anything on Saad?

Open training takeaways from today: - Cottrell on very light duties today - Cerra participated in all drills and did extra running in between - Evans also fully participated, knee still heavily strapped which restricted him a bit

@brad_colliss_8 Down back mostly

@blues_nuff @blues_nuff was Williams used forward or down back?

@easymmmkay Did little run throughs and kicks to start, but then just walked around with coaches. Wasn’t buzzing around like he was last week

@blues_nuff Did Cottrell look comfortable with it?

@KaynoWat Newman was good, he might need one more full VFL game under his belt but could be up for selection. Cerra looks ready, Evans might need one more week, Cottrell needs to build up through VFL. Mcgovern trained fully as a fwd again

@blues_nuff How did Newman go? Will he play Sunday? Do any of the 3 boys you listed make it for Sunday? McGovern train forward?

Slight injury concern Harry Dean was caught in a sling tackle and his head grazed the ground. Was taken to the bench and came back to do some light craft. Looks ok now though

Jacob Weitering. Harry McKay. Life Members of the Carlton Football Club. That's special 💙 READ MORE: carltonfc.com.au/news/1973846

@jimsta10 Yes, took part in the kicking drills but did mostly running

@blues_nuff Any sight of Harry O'Farrell?

Bye week training not too many takeaways - Cripps, Chesser ran laps for second half of training - Evans, Mckay, Lord, Moir wearing no-contact hats. All fully trained - Everyone participated in most of main training. Saad, Cerra, Wilson did run throughs during match sim drills

@nbhorse It does feel like that. Knee still heavily strapped since it happened. At least his training load has ramped up a bit recently

@blues_nuff why do I feel like Evans is going to have one of our famous 1-2 week injuries that sidelines him for 2 months?

Smooooooooooooth operator 😮‍💨 What a way to mark your first win in Navy Blue: Jagga Smith has been voted your @AnacondaStores Player of the Match for Round 1!

Hope the same fan base/s that said we were “sensitive” for leaving Docherty out of a function, react the same way to a club that turns comments off at halftime…in a round 1 game 🥸 #AFLDonsHawks

Hinkley: "Carlton's challenges are upstairs. There's a couple of demons they need to overcome. That's the challenge - above the shoulders." #AFLBluesTigers

Carlton and losing third quarters. Name a more iconic duo.

Sorry Fogarty but you’ve done enough… release the Byrne round 3 #AFLBluesTigers

Jagga has how many touches at QT??? 🧲 🧲 🧲 #AFLBluesTigers

Oh boy… #AFLBluesTigers

@Matt30942131232 both pretty solid, not a heap of touches but when they did they impacted.

@blues_nuff Campos?

FT. Carl 10.17.77 def Rich 10.10.70 Flynn Young another stand out game from him this preseason, clean and impactful with 3 goals Boyd good distributing the ball out of D50, made some clutch defensive acts late Moir was ok overall, fumbly with ball in hand but kicked 3 up fwd
