You don't expect me to remember all the Carlton floggos do you? I've tried to erase them from my memory.

That said he's important in the history of tactics, his haircut was an early iteration of "the zone".

Cheat of the century! IT WAS OUT OF BOUNDS!
I was in the 8th row and the ball knocked my ice cream out of my hands.

Does he still have the fro?
I lived next door to Val Perovic for a while. He was a concreter and a massive drunk. Big unit too.
Strange seeing Carlton players in real life and not in the Theatre of the Gods.

I went to the pictures (a rerun of Taxi Driver at the Lumiere when it was in Lonsdale) with a uni mate back in the 1990s. We walked into town down Lygon St, sugared up from cakes (millefeuille the Gelo Bar when Paula ran it, nice lady, not the next bloke who got shot outside) and I needed a wee so I stepped into the Astor which was run by Perce Jones (now the Green Man). He came out from behind the bar and hassled my mate "isn't he going to buy anything?". I finish up, trot out and he comes out again. Perce was drunk as a skunk at 7 pm on a Tuesday night. he says again "arentcha going to buy anything?" and I shot back "nah mate, I'm a Collingwood supporter" haha suffer Percy.

Few years before that I was working at the Lygon Inn (I think its a best Western now) in the kitchen (you could work part time and pay your way through Uni back then). I was heading in to work on a Friday arvo (arvo shift 3PM-1 AM) and we had Carlton at the G the next day. I was feeling pretty good, thought we might belt them. Turned down Grattan street toward work, and coming out the front door of one of the terrace houses was Alex Mother****ing Jesaulenko. He look me straight in the eyes and gave me a little nod and a warm friendly smile. A reassuring, kind smile, like Satan gives you when you land in Hell. Talk about omens, I knew with utter certainty we were done, and it was so.

Severa others occur but I'm rambling now.
 
Hard to think of a better goal assists of the 20th Century, though naturally it has an asterisk next to it.

No asterisk next to the goal assist of the 21st Century - N. Daicos 2023 Grand Final.
Harmes was way better.
 
I hope the Carlton brainstrust are seeing the same positives in it only being a 28 point loss.
We're just looking forward to getting a future star tonight with our probable pick 4.
 
I don't remember too many memes being made out of the scoreline at the time, in the same way we've seen Owen 60 proliferate our social media feeds...
That's because we won a classic final in Perth the week before after being locked down in a hotel, Blues fans conveniently leave that fact out, we had a GENUINE excuse

Blues have no excuse for Owen 60: picked injured players, made TDK sub and played scared

Historically disgraceful effort
