Game Review
On the first weekend of a split round, Carlton faced a big test in taking on the ladder-leaders St Kilda in the Blues' first ever game at Moorabbin. With captain-coach Ron Barassi injured, and his deputy John Nicholls away playing for Victoria, Serge Silvagni led the team and waged an epic battle with "The Doc" Darrel Baldock. Scores were level with only a minute or so left on the clock, only for ex-Blue Bruce McMaster-Smith to bob up and kick the winning goal for St Kilda.
This was a harsh loss for Carlton, because it sent us crashing out of the four, to sixth place on percentage.
