Match Preview: Essendon Bombers vs Carlton Blues

The Bombers host the Blues in this round 11 e-AFL clash at the MCG.

This is a clash of the bottom two teams both needing a confidence building win.

Last week the Blues came close to the Eagles but didn't quite get the chocolates despite Kruezer having a big win in the ruck battle with Nic Naitanui.

The Bombers were beaten by lowly St Kilda with Harrison Jones putting in a best on ground performance.

Key match ups

A McGrath vs P Cripps

Stopping Andrew McGrath will be a key for the dogs getting an upset win as he leads the competition for disposals. He will likely be going up against Patrick Crippswho may have to play a defensive role unless he can recapture some form and damage the Bombers offensively.

T Bellchambers vs M Kreuzer

Kreuzer got the better of Naitanui last week and if he can get one over another in form ruck in Bellchambers it will go a long way towards putting Carlton in a winning postion.

Prediction - Carlton by 8 points.
