Lions Game Today: The Carlton Blues’ Struggles
The Lions game today revealed a shocking display by the Carlton Blues. Despite entering the elimination final against the Brisbane Lions with a few changes, Carlton's performance was far from cohesive.
First Quarter Woes
The Blues became the first team since 1974 to finish a quarter scoreless, as the Lions kicked off with five unanswered goals.
- Carlton Blues made six lineup changes.
- Sam Docherty’s return failed to uplift the team’s spirits.
- The team was on track to become scoreless at halftime.
A Desperate Game
Captain Patrick Cripps managed to score, avoiding an embarrassing halftime record, but the damage was done. Key moments included:
- Orazio Fantasia’s brief moment of scoring for the Blues.
- Harry McKay's missed opportunity from close range.
Ultimately, the Carlton Blues will need to regroup and rethink their strategy moving forward.
