When the AFL drove the bus over Carlton early this century for salary cap cheating, they soon learned they had actually self-inflicted a bigger penalty on themselves, by nearly killing one of the bigger money earners in the competition. And the lesson was well learnt. Then we saw the...

Barrel is ok.

I can see gil the dill and the new dill seeing this and think it's a good idea if you get extra points for running and bouncing the ball through an interchange bench.

I really like this thread. The teams are incredible, and each one makes me debate my own choices each time someone puts a credible one up. It also reminds me how much I love following the Kangaroos in Rugby League, and how sad SOO seems dead in the water. Following the Kangaroos is where I...

Thanks for doing mine for me. Maybe S. Madden in place of Dempsey? Also Sheedy out, replaced by Wanganeen.

I don't know if he's cooked. But if he was short a quid, he could always get a gig singing in a Nirvana cover band.

13 clearances on Sunday.....

Hawks and Cats, please move on.

More exaggerated because the potential rewards are far greater. Intent is identical.

When KB, a very talented footballer, played in that manner, it was disgusting to witness.

I've never understood Aussie Rules fans bagging soccer players for staging when players in this game have been doing it for decades. There are degrees though, and I guess the rewards in soccer are far greater if you can get a player sent off or "win" a penalty. But it's not just embarrassing...

Thread needs to be renamed 2nd worst trades ever with O'Reilly to Carlton the hands down, 100%, rolled solid gold worst trade ever. All others pale in to insignificance.

Sad reading there, but I wouldn't include McInnes in that list. Was looking the goods, but got crueled by injury.

I've never heard that.

And if they owned it, they could have moved it.

Disagree. AFL were looking for Melbourne clubs to relocate or fold. Not such a stretch it could have been Carlton. And what early picks did we stuff up in those days? It was after 2008 we really started picking badly. The bigger issue then was we kept trading out early picks. And yeah, Jk...

It's not a huge stretch to suggest that the recruitment of 3 votes C.Judd saved Carlton from going under. Yeah, we overpaid from a purely football perspective. But worth every cent for keeping the club afloat.

So much this.

"The Bounce" should have a segment highlighting a weekly selection of the worst ones for the round.

You've got me. Premierships are all that matters. But 2013 was still sweet.

How many days?

I've bantered with a mate for years about getting a membership. Gave him the free one this year and hopefully he'll re-sign in 2022. It's a bit of smart marketing giving something to get more down the track.

Afl: Carlton Nrl: Manly Warringah, Sydney Roosters, Melbourne Storm Epl: Arsenal Music: Old school heavy metal like Deep Purple and Black Sabbath, thrash metal like Slayer, industrial metal like Rammstein

Yeah maybe. Many a word said in jest. But imagine a kid on a long car trip, sitting in the back seat of another family's car, and the other kid is sitting there not sharing their chocolate. Seems trivial as adults, but for kids, I can understand him not liking that, and that then help shaping...

I think it's TW's joke. Sorry for details/omissions/errors because I was only half listening but he said Hawker's parents used to give him a lift from Dimboola and he and Glen would sit in the back. And Glen wouldn't share his chocolate.

No-one rates any player at Carlton except Cripps. So for Carlton, it must be Cripps.

Toby Mitchell already owns Richmond.
