Game Review
In an appalling start to the season, Carlton suffered our third big loss in a row, to Melbourne at the MCG. As a result, we sank to the bottom of the VFL ladder, winless, with a percentage of 49%. Future Blue Harry Davie did most of the damage for the Fuchsias, kicking five goals.
At the end of this round Carlton were in 12th spot on the ladder with a percentage of 49.0.
