Carlton Blues vs North Melbourne Preview
Carlton will look to notch a third consecutive victory when it takes on North Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday afternoon. The Blues have taken full advantage of a soft stretch in their draw, edging past Essendon before comfortably dispatching West Coast—both wins built on explosive starts that delivered a combined first-quarter scoreline of 86-14.
North Melbourne, however, has shown growing resilience in recent weeks. Despite falling just short in a six-point defeat to Fremantle last round, the Kangaroos have kept six of their past seven losses to single digits—a marked improvement since their heavy Round 6 defeat to Carlton. That 82-point drubbing triggered sweeping changes from coach Alastair Clarkson, which appear to be paying dividends.
The Blues have dominated this matchup in recent years, winning the last five meetings while averaging 123.6 points per game. North has made strides, but they’ll need to hit the ground running to avoid another early avalanche.
