A cagey Michael Voss has declared Charlie Curnow fit to play against St Kilda after the star forward was involved in a last-minute training collision with ruckman Tom De Koning on Wednesday night.
The Carlton coach denied that Curnow had hurt his troubled knee in the clash but refused to elaborate any further on where the dual Coleman medallist had been hurt.

โThe last 30 seconds of the drill, him and Tom had a nice little collision,โ Voss said on Thursday morning.
โSo itโs not exactly what you want to see in the last 30 seconds, but heโll be fine.โ
Voss was asked what went through his mind when he saw his key forward go down clutching his knee.
โI tried to have a bit of a laugh to fob it off, but holding his knee is incorrect. But heโs fine,โ he said.
Voss also flatly denied a suggestion that Curnow had been having injections in his knee before training.
โBefore training? No, no, thatโs not the case at all,โ he said.
