Ex-Carlton coach Voss gives assessment of Blues' finals hopes
Almost four months after his exit from Carlton, Michael Voss speaks about the Blues' chances in the finals following their stunning turnaround.
Ex-Carlton coach Michael Voss has assessed the Blues' chances of winning the AFL premiership this season, stating that they are currently the equal-form team in the competition. However, Voss expressed skepticism about the Blues achieving a drought-breaking flag this year, acknowledging it would require overcoming significant odds.
The Blues are poised to face Geelong in an elimination final at the MCG, having recently secured a come-from-behind victory over Melbourne. Under interim head coach Josh Fraser, who took over in May, the Blues have won 11 of 14 matches, including a pivotal victory against Carlton. Voss commended Fraser's leadership and the team's ability to maintain a high level of football over the past 10-11 weeks, but he warned that the percentages suggest a premiership victory may be an uphill battle.
Voss praised the playing group for their resilience and joined Fraser in expressing optimism about the team's potential, highlighting the positive impact of their recent successes.
