We won the first half by 5 goals, they won the second by 3.
The first half was frenetic. We got tired, lost some structure and in some ways reverted to Carlton of recent times. They also seemed to tighten up and change a couple of things.
Yes, we held on, but if we had more petrol in the tank at the end, we possibly wouldn't have used so much in getting such a big lead (did it get out to 7 goals) in the first place. Who knows what would have happened.
A great aspect is that the workload is being shared - last week it wasn't the task forwards, this week it was, the mids have discussed. Hard for opposition to plan for.
