Brisbane Lions vs Carlton Blues Preview

The Carlton Football Club has been on a remarkable journey in the finals, notching up an impressive 11 victories in their last 12 matches and creating waves at the iconic MCG. Standout players such as Sam Walsh and Blake Acres have been instrumental in their success. However, the odds are stacked heavily against them as they prepare to take on Brisbane at the formidable Gabba, widely considered one of the most challenging venues in the AFL. Brisbane enters this contest with an impeccable 12-game winning streak at the stadium this season and a convincing victory over Port Adelaide in the Qualifying Final.

The Lions possess formidable talents in Charlie Cameron and Joe Daniher, who pose a significant threat to Carlton, a team that has recently endured two grueling finals matches. While Carlton boasts talent in the likes of Tom De Koning, Harry McKay, and Charlie Curnow, the toll of their previous battles might leave them too fatigued to secure a victory.

In this high-stakes showdown, Brisbane emerges as the clear favorite, with all indications pointing toward them securing their first Grand Final appearance since 2004. Anticipate the Lions to leverage their home advantage and deliver a commanding and decisive victory.
