Game Review
It rained constantly throughout this match at Princes Park, and for most of the day the game was more of a rugby maul. Carlton were the better team, and eventually won by nine points in a muddy slog. Most of those nine minor scores were rushed through by the Hawthorn defenders.Still, the Blues climbed to fifth after another win, two points outside the four.
