Carlton will be without Chris Judd and Bryce Gibbs for Friday night's clash with Sydney at the SCG, but the Blues could regain Andrew Walker and Lachie Henderson.

Judd has been ruled out with knee soreness and Gibbs with a back injury suffered in the loss to Geelong.

Henderson is in contention to return from a hamstring injury, while Walker will be hoping his niggling knee is in check.

Matthew Kreuzer could also be considered for senior selection – the big man played two matches with the Northern Blues before being ruled out last week with a sore leg.
