Game Review

Carlton booked themselves a ticket to the 1918 finals by defeating 5th placed Fitzroy.

Carlton finished 3rd and would have the honour of taking on ladder leaders South Melbourne in the Semi Final, a team we could not defeat all year - losing in Round 5, 1918 and Round 12, 1918.

At the end of this round Carlton were in 3rd spot on the ladder with a percentage of 116.5.
