Game Review
"Carlton made a last minute change omitting Doyle. The selectors decided to play Skehan in his place, but Skehan was absent, and McSwain went in." (Sporting Globe May 24)The Herald said it was a record score to half time.
The Blues would win comfortably, with young 19 year old Les Allen scoring 8 goals from the forward pocket - in just his second game.
At the end of this round Carlton were in 1st spot on the ladder with a percentage of 157.1.
