Rnd 1 Carlton vs Richmond - Pre-Game

[kruddler]

No doubt. Most teams that win a flag need luck of one type or another. They certainly had a great run with injuries. The real question that is impossible to answer is how big a role did that lack of injuries play ? The Dogs won in 2016 with a bad run of injuries : Murphy, Johannisen, Adams, McLean, Wallis, Redpath, Morris, Stringer, Dahlhaus and Libba, were either out for the season or out at various points.

I guess when it's your time............

Thats the real question? Seriously??

Umm....it helped them greatly? Not changing a side week to week is an advantage. Never having your best players out of the side is obviously a huge advantage.

I'd hazard a guess and say there is not team in recent history that even comes close to that kind of dream run with injuries.
