But the Blues season came to an end, against Sydney in the Semi-Finals at ANZ Stadium.

OVERVIEW
Bryce Gibbs proved one of Carlton’s most versatile players in Season 2013, playing up forward, down back and through the midfield. The 24-year-old had a solid finish to the season, and was instrumental in the come-from-behind win over Port Adelaide at AAMI Park, the last match at the ground where Gibbs played much of his junior football.
Carlton’s No.4 was the subject of trade speculation mid-season, to which coach Mick Malthouse responded by declaring Gibbs “untouchable”.
Gibbs also continued in his role as Ambassador for the Pratt Cup, raising awareness of prostate cancer.
