Defender Aidan Corr will return to the GIANTS team, replacing co-captain Phil Davis against Carlton at Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

Davis failed to overcome a corked leg suffered in the GIANTS round six victory over Hawthorn.

Corr, who turns 21 on Sunday, played the first five games this season and returns after performing well for the UWS GIANTS in the NEAFL last week.

Saturday will be the 20th AFL game for Corr, who’s been named at centre half back.

The GIANTS match against Carlton can be watched live in NSW and ACT on Fox Footy and 7mate.
