AFL Rd 3 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs North Melbourne

[Thryleon]

I have the feeling that this is a danger game this week but I am not sure exactly why.  Maybe one reason is that North were 4-5 goals up against Freo in the 2nd quarter then missed 3 easy shots at goal that could have given them a bigger lead but they missed them all.
They played well in the first half.  But we are better than Freo?  Still, we need to start well coming off the bye worries me. 
Maybe it's the Clarkson factor that still haunts me?  Anyway, if we aspire to be a top four team, we need to put young developing teams like Norf to the sword and win and win well.

It's too many false dawns.  Gritty teams would turn up and we'd struggle.

It's not really a cripps trait.  North have been a bogey side for us, but their lack of key backs should see us win easily enough.
