The Footypunt View

The Kangaroos have a dominant recent record over Carlton winning 6 of their past 7 encounters, the last 4 all by around 20 to 30 point margins. They have come unstuck in the past 3 rounds going down to Brisbane, West Coast & Geelong in consecutive matches however those sides all produced quality performances and the Kangas did little to damage their reputation as one of the competitions better outfits this season. Carlton have clearly improved their performance levels over the past few weeks but have lacked that killer blow when it’s been called for in the final quarter……I wonder why. This week they meet a quality side who will be desperate to return to winning form and also improve their percentage going into the finals. Expecting the Kangaroos to win this comfortably and happy to take on the line giving away a solid 28.5 point head start at $1.96 with Pinnacle.
