We'll endeavour to run through the form, incorporate appropriate stats and also supply a betting prediction which won't always just be who will win.
CARLTON v GWS
Saturday 20 April @ Marvel Stadium
Another match early in 2024 that has the potential to end up a Finals game.
And with the combined margin of 3 points in their matches last Saturday, nerves are still in recovery mode.
Carlton will be filthy at losing. Had you said a month ago that losing to Adelaide was to be felt that way then you'd suggest they were being harsh.
But then the Crows were almost gone for 2024 and Carlton had 3 goals in hand late in the game only to lose.
In his first one back, Sam Walsh was fantastic. He couldn't quite get everyone to come with him. Cripps now has to step up unless he's got an injury we don't know about.
They'll all want to be on their game against the Giants leading the comp.
The Saints game was their least impressive effort to date. More so when they got a long way up and frittered it away. Even more after Thursday night's result.
Some injuries will be worrying and if those in the middle and toward the defence are taken away then danger looms (for both sides).
Match | Carlton | GWS | Ground |
Last time they met | 11.7 [73] | 16.9 [105] | Marvel |
Last 10 matches | 4 wins | 6 wins | |
Notes | GWS won the final round game last year to make the finals | ||
Carlton has only won 6 times against GWS |
With Coniglio and Taylor out, you can see a drama but Carlton are not immune either. We'll go for the Blues to do what should be considered an upset but the odds may not say so.
Match Selection: Carlton by 11 points
Suggested Bets: Carlton 1-39 @ $2.35 @ bet365
