The first name that came to mind was Craig Bradley.

Mil Hanna was a fave too. Deisel was a great player, but his constant scowl didn't really endear him to me, so I couldn't say he was a fave.

I use to love yelling out "Ronny Delulio" as well.

I used to love screaming out Ka-Hoowligen... for Houlihan.
 
In return we got Barry Mitchell...

and you got Trent Hotten!

Wrong. Mitchell went from Collingwood in '93 (the million dollar man) to Carlton in '94. He played some great football for us and would have played in the '95 premiership if not for injury.

Hotton was serviceable in a very good team in 2000 also.
 
Kenny Hunter - was Laidley thin and would still get up even when he was pollaxed. Sublime skills and courage

I can't belief you got two out of my three - especially Digby :(

My third is of course the great Mitch Robinson - he might not have a silly name but he's definitely the silliest footballer I've ever seen

Normally I'd say Ange Christou as well but he was to good a player for my list. John Elliot wins as my favorite Carlton personality - nobody fits that football club better than Jack imo :thumbsu:
Would go watch his beloved Pies after playing U/19's for the Blues earlier in the day.

Reminded me of BF's most famous post by then great poster Weaver lol!!

"Worst trade ever?

That's easy. Pick 16 and 46 for Stephen O'Reilly who played 12 games for you. AND you had to pay him illegally outside the cap. AND he blew the whistle on you. AND you had to pay a fine. AND you got kicked out of the draft and had to recruit hacks. AND it meant that your mulit-million investment in Denis Pagan was a waste because he had no players.

Stephen O'Reilly for - Pick 16, pick 46, $1m fine, pick 1, 2, 17 and 33 in the 2003 draft, pick 1 in the 2003 PSD, 1st and 2nd round picks in the 2004 draft.

I reckon that would have the McMahon trade covered by a couple of laps of Flemington, then a trip down the highway for a run round Caulfield, before a backtrack to run the length of the Moone Valley straight."

The Carey and Longmire for a packet of twisties would be up there as well
