Note that there are 18 players in the shot but 19 are listed for the match. Missing players should be from:

Back Row middle is possibly George Bailey
Back row far right is probably Ron Savage
Middle Row second from left is probably Jack Skinner

Comment
This is a 1941 Carlton (VFL) Senior Team photographed at home ground Princes Park. Jim Francis took over (from Brighton Diggins) as captain in 1941. Note that Paul Schmidt in front row seems to have a cap on and socks rolled down which does not elevate the tone of the photo.The player second from left in middle row appears in Photo H2008.122/161.
