the top 5 sides are all pretty equal but have a better chance with home ground in the finals. WCE need top 2 for a safe ride in the finals.
they play Richmond at the G so should lose that one
key and probably best defender out with Liam Jones. They probably have to move Levi back.
WCE get their capt back. Their backline will be full strength.
Yeo is one of the best matchups on Cripps.
WCE forwards are in good form so should put up a good score.
Carlton are in good form. Not really playing for much other than respect and the interim coach. Marvel doesn’t give either team a big advantage. The only way I see Carlton winning this is moving the ball quickly with their stalls kicking a winning score. Possible but highly unlikely based on the talent. On paper, WCE are much better.
