Melbourne vs Carlton Preview
Alice Springs is in for a treat as it plays host to the conference B matchup between Melbourne who are second on the B ladder against Carlton who are third.
This could easily be the game of the round.
Carlton has shown they are a force to be reckoned with and have easily proven to be one of the most entertaining teams to watch in the AFLW competition.
The first half of their 21 point win over St.Kilda was a see-sawing affair before they kicked away in the third quarter to chalk up another win.
Melbourne had to get the job done over West Coast last week and they most certainly did that with a very comfortable 59 point win.
They also held the Eagles to the equal lowest score in AFLW history of 1.1 (7) – matched with Geelong’s efforts in last years Preliminary Final against Adelaide.
The Dees win was the fourth largest margin in AFLW history.
You could have mistaken Melbourne’s game for a training drill last week as they had 62 more disposals and 24 inside 50s.
It was also pleasing to see former Crow and cult AFLW star Sarah Perkins back in action with a couple of goals at full forward.
Carlton will prove a much tougher test for the Dees this weekend.
Expect this one to go down to the wire, but despite Melbourne’s dominance last weekend and the likely heat I’m willing to back the underdog in Carlton for this one.
