Retired Carlton champion Heath Scotland will be farewelled with a lap of honour at the MCG at the AFL Grand Final.

Scotland called time on his 268-game career in May, after being told his troublesome ankle wasn’t going to improve if he kept playing. 

He’s one of 17 retiring 200-game players to accept the AFL’s invitation for a pre-game lap of honour on Saturday. 

Scotland will be joined by Luke Ball, Simon Black, Campbell Brown, Jonathan Brown, Dom Cassisi, Dean Cox, Daniel Giansiracusa, Lenny Hayes, Josh Hunt, Darren Jolly, Quentin Lynch, Ash McGrath, Nick Maxwell and Ben Rutten.
