Carlton went on a goal rampage at IKON Park on Grand Final eve.

After two weeks on the wrong side of the result, the Blues returned to winning ways in convincing fashion, running away with a 55-point victory over Richmond on Friday.

Carlton finished 11.10 (76) to 3.3 (21), with the Tigers managing just one behind after half-time as they were completely shut out of the contest. 

From the opening minutes, the Blues took control and gave the visitors little opportunity to build sustained pressure.

Erone Fitzpatrick was at the heart of Carlton's attack, with the 2023 Irish recruit producing an impressive performance with three goals, 16 disposals, 10 kicks and five tackles.

She had plenty of support, with Nell Morris-Dalton kicking two goals from 14 disposals, while Mimi Hill, Tayla McMillan, Sophie McKay and Keeley Sherar were also among the Blues to find the scoreboard.

For Richmond, Olivia Wolmarans provided one of the few bright spots up forward, kicking two of the Tigers' three goals in the first half as Richmond struggled to find other avenues to goal.

Already without star midfielder Monique Conti due to an Achilles injury, Richmond's problems worsened when Baia Pugh was ruled out with a collarbone injury, while forward Aoibhin Cleary was sidelined with an ankle injury during the first half.

The Tigers will return to IKON Park on Friday night to take on Geelong.
