Game Review
The Blues would triumph by 9 points over Melbourne, but another story unfolded on this day.
Daryl Gilmore would play his first and only game for Carlton, kick 3 goals 1 before going off sore, but would never be seen again. Daryl was kind enough to tell his story to the Blueseum, which can be accessed
here.
