Two Carlton players hospitalised after separate incidents

Carlton players have been involved in two separate incidents over the weekend, with two players ending up in hospital.

The Blues will release a statement on Sunday after reports circulated in the morning that players had required emergency medical care and that recreational drugs had allegedly been involved.

One player was taken to hospital via ambulance after a night of partying. In a second incident, another, senior player went to hospital on Sunday morning to be treated for a cut to the head after falling following a night out.

The second player woke up on Sunday morning with a headache and sought medical treatment, according to a source with knowledge of the situation who did not wish to comment publicly. The player took an Uber to hospital, where he was treated for the cut.

Both players are believed to be doing well.

Ambulance Victoria declined to comment, citing patient confidentiality.

More to come.
