Preview:
Carlton came agonisingly close to a win last Sunday against the Suns, losing to a late Jack Bowes goal to fall to 0-4. The Dogs’ impressive start has tailed off, losing two on the trot, including last week to the Pies by 14 points. Carlton has been more than competitive in four losses this season, losing by 3 goals or less in three of their four games. The Dogs have been performing better as underdogs, beating Sydney and Hawthorn, while losing to the Suns as favourites. They have covered in 3 of 4 matches and start as near 3-goal favourites on Sunday. The sons of the west have a strong recent record against the Blues, winning five in a row, but something tells The Wolf that Carlton will make this more than interesting. The Dogs have shown themselves to be a risky favourite, losing outright to the Suns and could find themselves in a battle on Sunday afternoon.
