Carlton Blues vs Port Adelaide Power Preview
Carlton has rejuvenated their season on the back of three wins in a row and find themselves just one game, and percentage, out of the finals picture.
All three of those wins were against sides below them on the ladder in Hawthorn, Gold Coast and Fremantle though, so I’m not sure exactly how much to read into it.
Port Adelaide continues on their upward trajectory and only percentage separates them from Collingwood at the top.
They have now won 13 in a row and have covered the line in their last nine at Marvel Stadium.
My trust in Carlton remains close to zero and the Power look like incredible value in my opinion.
