Fremantle Dockers vs Carlton Blues Preview
Arguably the standout fixture of the round, featuring two of the four remaining undefeated teams in the league.
Last week, Carlton cruised to a commanding 56-point victory over North Melbourne, with Harry McKay and Charlie Curnow dominating in attack.
Similarly, Fremantle had a comfortable win against Adelaide, showcasing their midfield strength led by Caleb Serong and Hayden Young.
In their previous encounter last year, Carlton emerged victorious, denting Fremantle’s finals aspirations.
The Blues’ midfield dominance and superior forward firepower proved decisive, particularly in the final quarter.
While Fremantle looks strong this season, questions remain about the quality of their opponents.
Likewise, Carlton’s victories have mostly come against weaker teams.
Expect a closely contested match, but given their recent history, I predict Carlton to emerge victorious in a low-scoring affair.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Carlton Blues to win at $1.62 odds.
