Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti?

Looks like a 70's piece. So done well before he was a twinkle in his parent's eyes. Impressive.

Cripps aside, that list is depressing. Hopefully Carroll can wear 16 with great distinction.

Yeah, not been much joy after Jimmy Buckley and Camporeale in my time.

Our apologies, yes, Carroll is Blue #1229 (not #1128 as above). We had somehow double counter #1225. Stats are important - the sub-editor has been let go.

Shit, I hope not.

It's already our longest finals drought.... at 8 full seasons with us last playing finals in 2013. 8 whole seasons, Malthouse, Bolton. Teague and now Voss:

Will this break the drought? [Apologies, been keeping a lid on it].

Q: Who was the top goalkicker in our last finals game?

From the Blueseum

 

[Shambolic]

8 full seasons, my youngest is 10.... she only knows..... PAIN (or absence of anything)

Levi Casboult?

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Coming home from the footy on Friday night and I had a feeling of deja vu as I contemplated our progress this season.

Carlton was a basket case at the end of the 1964 season (my first season of going to the footy). We’d finished 10th with 5 wins and a draw. My recollection was of a competitive team who just fell short. I’ve just checked the ladder and our % despite the win loss record was 90.3%. We had good players and Gordon Collis won the Brownlow but we needed some more polished performers, a new administration and a decent coach much like at the end of 2021 season.

I’m not sure how quickly this will translate into success. From 1965 to 1967 it was a steady build before we won our drought breaking premiership in 1968. Nicholls, Silvagni, Lofts et al were joined by Quirk, Robertson, Crane, Jeasaulenko and Crosswell and many others for the dynasty that followed.

I suspect we’re further along at this stage and that’s why I’m excited. There’s no Big Nick in this team but everywhere else there are players now who bookend those greats of the past.

So take it from this old bugger. The Blueboys are coming at a rate of knots which gives me that feeling that I’ve seen it all before.
