Rnd 1 Carlton vs Richmond - Pre-Game

[PaulP]

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.

Sure it helps, of course it makes a difference, but it's not the difference between a flag and no flag, as the Dogs proved the previous year.
