AFL: After a string of successes in close games, Leigh Montagna is tipping the Blues to fall in another thriller to the Giants.

Injury-ravaged Carlton and GWS will face off in a Saturday blockbuster at Marvel Stadium, with dual All-Australian Leigh Montagna predicting Blues heartbreak for a second straight week.

The Blues will be without star trio Adam Cerra, Adam Saad and Mitch McGovern due to injury, while the Giants will be without Sam Taylor and Stephen Coniglio., Montagna predicted the Blues – who have been involved in matches decided by 10 points or less eight times in their past 11 games – would lose another nailbiter.

Peatling, GWS’ last-minute hero last week against St Kilda, was the sub in that game and remains in that role today.
