Yeah, probably not the kind of guy you want in the rooms unless you're Carlton
Dead right. We went to an away game at Optus oval in the late 90s and it was a stinking cold miserable wet day so we paid to sit in that miserable shitty stand that doesn't properly face the oval. Sat right behind us were the "Carlton Crew" who I knew because I had a mate who was a bookie* who was a known associate of some of the older crew members.

* Not licenced in Victoria.
 
Then I suspect he now regrets being one of the players who white-anted Ben Rutten. Reaping what he sowed.
Yeah playing stupid games, wins you stupid prizes. Surprised a fringe player like Hind, would be involved in those sort of antics. Wouldn't think he'd have the pull in the group.
Always thought Rutten was very stiff. Bloke made the finals in his first year, he should've had some credits in the bank to survive one bad year.
Bard as we all predicted, he taken them precisely nowhere.

The original Star Wars Battlefront that released on the Xbox and Playstation 2 has turned 20 years old today.

It's release is still more recent than an * finals win.

Surely there must be YouTube clips of this memorable moment I’ve forgotten
 
Is this it?



I can’t locate the Tweet



Can't remember the year, 2016 ? * were maybe 19 points up very late in the last q. Lions went bang, bang, bang, bang iirc with 4 late goals and won. 2 Lions blokes in front of us had left to catch the Skybus to the airport. Their 2 mates had to call them to give them the the final score.
