Should never have lost the one in 2000. 21 points in front at 3/4 time, we were clearly the better team, but Brad Green got among the goals in the last quarter & they run over the top of us. We had 27 scoring shots to 21 & still lost.Those 3 How did we stuff that up, horror finals in 1988, 94 & 2000.
Was behind the goals in '88, still reckon the Melbourne goal in the last that sealed it, hit the post halfway up, veered 2 feet, and the goal umpire missed it.
I think most Carlton supporters at the ground teared up a bit when Jarrad kicked that goal. The reaction from the players was really good. They all got around him after he kicked the goal. As you have stated, once he kicked the goal I thought nothing would stop us from winning. Unfortunately it didn't happen, despite us taking a 26 point lead into the final quarter.Round 14 '03 The game Waite played after losing Vin the day before. I remember Jarrad roosting one through from outside 50. Got a bit choked up after that and thought there would be no way we'd lose from there.
Was a bit before my time... about 4 years before I was old enough... but 1965 was the start of something special which eventually sealed my fate as a Blues supporter.
And really something that Melbourne supporters hated us for a bloody long time over!
Pinching Brass Arse from Melbourne to come and be our captain coach and lead us to glory in 68 and that all time great grand final in 70
