CARLTON will aim to secure back-to-back wins when it takes on Geelong at Ikon Park on Saturday.

The match kicks off at 11am, with the Northern Blues to follow at 2pm.

Last time they met:

The Blues went down in a thrilling contest at GMHBA Stadium, last season with a final score of 8.3 (51) to 7.2 (44).  

Chloe Dalton – who will play her first VFLW game for the season today -- impressed for the Blues with a goal, and was ultimately named one of the best players on the ground.

Fellow inclusion Breann Moody also booted through an important major on the day.

Player to watch: Emerson Woods 

Emerson Woods played one of her best games of the VFLW season in Round 6 and was named best-on-ground by Carlton coach Shannon McFerran.

The former Vic Metro representative excelled at half-back with 18 disposals, two marks and two tackles.

Woods’ athleticism and cleanliness with ball-in-hand could trouble the Geelong forwards today.

Opposition to watch: Amy McDonald

McDonald is averaging 19.8 disposals from her five games this season for Geelong.  

She racked up a season-high 25 possessions in the Cats’ 29-point win over Casey last week, making it three straight weeks with over 20 disposals next to her name.

McDonald finished in the top 10 of the Cats’ VFLW Best & Fairest count last year and has been elevated to the leadership group this season.

Shannon’s say:

“Geelong are a tough opponent. They like to play a high-pressure game. 

“We’ll just be looking at moving the ball quite quickly.”
