Game Review
<a href="tiki-read_article.php?articleId=132&page=1">
</a>Yet again, champion spearhead Harry Vallence dominated this match at Brunswick St. In his 199th senior game for Carlton - at the age of 33 years and 63 days - 'Soapy' kicked 11 goals as the Blues comfortably accounted for Fitzroy.
Meanwhile, at Corio Oval, Geelong knocked over Footscray in a thriller, and gave Carlton an 8-point buffer on top of the ladder.
At the end of this round Carlton were in 1st spot on the ladder with a percentage of 121.6.
