Roos star Luke Davies-Uniacke can see the green shoots for his football side and today’s win will only make their growing chemistry improve even faster.

“We are finally getting to that 50 games-plus milestone together and if you look at recent premiership sides, they are getting 80-100 plus games together – so to get that continuity, our chemistry is growing with every game,” Davies-Uniacke told Fox Footy.

“Moments like this just makes it even better.”

You couldn’t have scripted that match and especially that final term.

The Blues did everything to put themselves in a winning position but the Roos just ran over the top of them to kick seven final term goals and snatch a memorable win.

This loss will have some big ramifications for the Blues, coach Michael Voss and the rest of this season.

The Roos have won the match with a seven-goal final term.

What a win for Alastair Clarkson’s men, but what a nightmare for Michael Voss and Carlton.
