Carlton Blues vs Fremantle Dockers Preview
Like a frustrated commuter, Carlton fans are starting to get a little impatient for the Teague Train to take them to their desired destination.
Owen-two nine years running, the promise of “THEY KNOW WE’RE COMING” and “CAN YOU SMELL WHAT THE BLUES ARE COOKING?” and 26 years since Carlton was top of the pops, you can understand why.
The doomsday hot-take Monday night footy shows gave the Blues a bit of a whack last week, honourable losses just won’t cut the mustard anymore and they simply must beat Freo on Sunday for things to cool down.
Fremantle easily got the job done over GWS last week at Optus Stadium to the tune of 31-points.
It would have been significantly higher had the Dockers kicked straight and old-hands in David Mundy managed 35 disposals in an attacking display of Australian Rules Football.
While the win was impressive, Nat Fyfe being sidelined late in the third quarter after a Sam Reid bump will be a big out for Freo.
Carlton and Fremantle have produced plenty of drama in the last two meetings between these two sides, with the Blues winning both.
I’m not sure if we’ll have as dramatic a contest on Easter Sunday, but in the spirit of the day, I expect the Blues to win and resurrect their 2021 season.
