How do Carlton again win the unwinnable game? There is a way. In games with high stakes, the Lions have revealed a soft underbelly.
Midfielder George Hewett explained why this is an advantage for his Carlton teammates on 3AW on Monday. “Brisbane has played one game in three weeks, so we can look at it as though we are match-fit,” he said.
They dominated the statistics against Port Adelaide in the qualifying final. But the visitors hit the front in the third quarter, and, if not for inaccuracy, Port Adelaide might have built a commanding lead. The additional worry for the Lions is the fitness of key defender Jackson Payne, who has been in a moon boot this week and has not trained due to a foot injury.
