CARLTON has made three changes to its VFLW side this week ahead of its Round 3 clash with the undefeated Hawks.

AFLW vice-captain Lauren Arnell and young all-rounder Isabella Gietzmann will pull on the navy blue jumper for the first time in the 2018 VFLW competition, while midfielder Madeline Keryk has been recalled to the team.

Both Carlton and Hawthorn haven’t lost a game yet this season and currently sit second and third on the ladder, respectively.
