Carlton opened up the season with four straight losses. They rebounded with big wins against easier opposition in West Coast and North Melbourne before edging out Geelong by 18 points in Round 7. They could not take that form on the road in their loss to Adelaide.
The Blues could not get their hands on the footy enough in the Crows match, leading to an inside 50 count of 36-58. They are normally strong in this area, ranking 3rd in the competition for inside 50s, coming on the back off a strong clearance game.
George Hewett had 25 disposals last week and is averaging 29.5 this season. Charlie Curnow booted two goals from limited opportunities and has kicked 11 from his past four.
