Preview:
The Tigers did their flag credentials no harm with a 33-point win against the Dees last weekend. They are aiming for their seventh win on the trot when they play the Blues at the ‘G on Sunday.
Carlton weren’t disgraced in their four goal loss to the Eagles and a productive second half of the season will have Blues fans hoping for a return to finals in 2020.
Richmond has dominated Carlton in recent meetings, winning eight in a row against the Bluebaggers, including the first game of the season by 33 points.
Trent Cotchin and Sydney Stack are still a few weeks away for the Tigers, but they are slowly starting to field their best 22 at the right time of the season.
The Wolf can’t see the Tigers slipping up against the Blues in a match they should win, but Carlton have proved kings against the spread this season, covering in 13 games and they can keep this one tight heading into the last quarter.
