Western Bulldogs vs Carlton Blues Preview
A really interesting game is on the cards this Sunday afternoon under the lid at Marvel Stadium.
One team had the win they had to have last week (Carlton) and one was delivered a reality check (Western Bulldogs)
Blues fans will no doubt be pleased this week that their boys showed some serious grit last weekend in a terrific win over their old rivals Essendon.
The Western Bulldogs looked to have Richmond covered early on last Friday night until that famous Tiger pressure got the better of them.
The Doggies go in as favorites ($1.32) with many expecting Bevo’s men to get the better of the Bluebaggers ($3.35)
As for the Same Game Multi, I’ve penciled the Dogs in to win by 1-39 as the first leg.
Aaron Naughton has proven to be a sensation for the Bulldogs this season, with three goals, four marks inside 50, and eight score involvements against Richmond last week, backing him for 2+ goals on Sunday is good value for in the second leg.
As for the third, we can all do with a little Eddie Betts magic from the pocket in our lives, so we’ll back the great man for anytime goal kicker to complete it. $4.95 if you don’t mind!
