Carlton launched into life in their hub with an excellent win over the Western Bulldogs on Sunday night, and jumped into the top eight for the first time this year. agerealfooty
The Blues three wins in season 2020 have come against in-form sides - Geelong, Essendon and now the Western Bulldogs. The first two of those teams sit in the top four while the Bulldogs were on a run of three very impressive consecutive triumphs before they came up against David Teague's Blues.
On Sunday night against the Dogs the latest player to look like he would do that was Matt Kennedy, who excelled on the inside to support Patrick Cripps, the man who is usually left to crack into the coalface on his own.The Dogs will rue their first quarter, in particular the inexcusable start which allowed Carlton six of the first eight centre clearances.
The Bulldogs stars in Jack Macrae, Easton Wood, Lachie Hunter and Marcus Bontempelli combined for a goal to their captain to end the third quarter and cut the margin to 18-points at the final change. It seemed this might provide a spark.
