I love Beating Carlton
I really hate Carlton, they have over the years flouted the rules, paid people under the table, organised jobs for wives with big money and generally, like Essendon, did anything to have an advantage. I can still hear that Moron Elliot saying we have a tragic history. I am so glad they haven't won a premiership for over 25 years and have been wooden spooners 5 times since then
What are some of your memorable games against this mob?
One of the best games, not in quality was this match:
Back in 1991. Unfortunately in the dying seconds Arceri got a free kick and kicked a goal.

Re: I love Beating Carlton
Great photo BAD - must have been a helluva comeback from the Blues to come back after kicking 10 points and over coming a close to 50 point deficit in what looks like horrid conditions. Did the Dogs take their foot of the pedal or did we have injuries?

Haha. That's the final score.

I can't remember having ever played them in a final over the past 40 years.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Plus that one goal on the siren.
We beat them twice that year, including Princes Park

Re: I love Beating Carlton
It was a soft free kick given the conditions but he did well to make the distance given the footy would have been water logged
I stayed for the full game after seriously contemplating leaving with about 15 minutes to go but the hope of seeing them finish the game goalless kept me there.
Cold and wet through it was an uncomfortable trip home which would have been made so much better had they not kicked that goal

Whoops, didn't look at that properly.

Amazingly we have never played them in a final.

The week that Elliot made those particular comments, we gave Carlton a nice touch up at Docklands and Trent Bartlett kicked 5 goals.

My old man went to a Carlton President's lunch one day (early 90s at a guess) and inadvertently sat in Elliot's seat.

Steve Macpherson has never recovered from that free kick he gave away.
Bring back the biff

Re: I love Beating Carlton
I've only ever really known Carlton as kind of a joke so don't hate them as much as say St Kilda, but know that I'm meant to. Pretty hard to feel anything but sorry (in the most condescending possible way) for a team coached by Brendan Bolton and fielding guys like Cam Polson
I definitely hate Carlton people though, especially that self-styled intellectual dickhead Trump supporter Chris Judd and the unbelievably not dead John Elliott.
