Game Review
A 104 point demolition of the Magpies at Victoria Park - it doesn't get much better than that! Carlton's key forwards dominated this match. Our captain, Jim Francis playing at full forward, scored 8 goals, Jack Wrout booted 7, and Mick Price added another five.
The Blues were in 5th spot with a percentage of 124.1.
