CARLTON star Chris Judd will step out for the first time this pre-season in Marc Murphy's debut as Blues captain on Friday night.
The Blues have named a strong team for the NAB Cup grand final against Brisbane at Etihad Stadium including power forwards Sam Rowe and Levi Casboult.
Coach Mick Malthouse has also included young Josh Bootsma for his first pre-season hit out as the Blues prepare for their Round 1 clash against Richmond on March 28.
Bryce Gibbs returns after being rested for last Friday's 'preliminary final' against Adelaide at AAMI Stadium.
But the Blues will go into the decider without reigning best and fairest winner Heath Scotland, Tom Bell and Jeremy Laidler.
Judd has been named on the bench with Matthew Kreuzer and hard-nosed defender Mitch Robinson.
Meanwhile, Lions coach Michael Voss has reunited his emerging 'Three Rs' midfield with Jack Redden joining Tom Rockliff and Daniel Rich for Friday's grand final.Rockliff and Rich were critical to the Lions defeating Collingwood last Saturday.
Meanwhile, veteran defender Matt McGuire will be looking to win a second pre-season competition medallion following his victory in 2004 with St Kilda.
Injured ruckman Matthew Leuenberger (achilles) has been rested for the match as a precautionary measure.
Rookies Justin Clarke and Sam Michael have been omitted.
