I came across this just now. Big Carl was suspended 19 times BEFORE they had video reviews. "The past is a foreign country, they do things differently there."

Ditterich was an animal
The only thing stkilda would ever win was acts of thuggery on the field
The authorities should have rubbed him out for life. He didn't play football, he was just a thug

He missed out on the Saints only flag because he was rubbed out for 6 weeks for jobbing Daryl Peoples of Fitzroy.
In a game that St Kilda won by 84 points so it wasn't like thumping one of the opposition players was going to win them the game or anything. What an idiot.Quote:
