The eyes of the AFL world will once again fall on Carlton, as the struggling powerhouse tries to avoid a five-match losing streak when it takes on Melbourne.
Melbourne (7-4, 133.9%) entered the year with much external hype, but has lost it past two matches.
Carlton (4-6-1, 96.7%) is yet to record a win since its round seven thumping of West Coast, including a loss to the injury-ravaged Sydney Swans last week.
