Arrivederci Carrazzo, e mille grazie per attaccare da durante i momenti difficili al Carlton.
That's the best that my schoolgirl Italian can manage!

One of those players who doesn't have all the talent in the world but always worked his arse off and respected the guernsey that he was playing in.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Cheers Carrots. Shame you couldn't quite crack 200.

 

[Faz 2000]

Good job, Carrots. Could not have got any more out of his natural talents. Definitely a leader and great clubman. I bet he sticks around footy with umpiring or coaching or in some other club role, and will do well at it.

Also, in the nicest possible way, a good thing that he's moving on. It's time.

 

[BluStreak]

THANK YOU Carrots.
May the next chapter in your life story be as exciting and more rewarding.

Always wore the jumper like the privilege it is. Never gave less than 100%. If only more gifted players could do the same.

Thanks for everything Andy. I'd say enjoy a relaxing retirement, but chasing three daughters around the house won't be relaxing.

 

[ShanDog]

Even knowing this was likely to happen, its still really sad. Cheers Carrots for all your hard work during tough times. Best of luck for the future and enjoy some family time lol

 

[DaVillaBlues]

I will miss Carrots, definitely a self-made footballer who get every drop out of his talent and made the most of it. A club champion (best and fairest winner) and one of our more consistent performers in the last decade or so, especially during some lean years. Thank you AC.

 

[T2B_]

Thanks Andy, a dedicated and hard working servant of the club who always gave his all even in our darkest times. All the best to him and his family.

 

[HARKER]

Thank you Andrew.
More time with the girls now


.............Can we also amend Andrews name in the thread title.

 

[teknodeejay]

He's one that you can say made the most of his opportunity. Well done and bon voyage!

 

[bluebunz]

Absolute heart and soul player always willing to put the jumper and the club first.

Was the number one whipping boy for quite a few years due to suspect disposal /skills etc.

However, it was when he was out of the the side (due to injury) we discovered what was missing and why he would be among the first on the coach's team sheet - his on-field leadership where he led by example, his first-rate commitment to the task at hand (usually to blanket the opposition's gun player) and an uncompromising attitude to putting his body on the line.

Massive respect.

 

[BringBackSimmo]

Thanks for your service!

 

[bmaurizio]

Auguroni Andrew, sei un dei grandi Baggers, grazie per i ricordi.
Ciao

 

[dragonsblues]

Thank you Andy. Gave 100% and got every bit out of himself. Best wishes for your future endeavours. If you become an ump, remember that loyalty

Damn Hocking (Lonergan) in the purple patch.

Edit: My dislike for Hocking obviously plays tricks on my memory.

 

[Jatz]

How many games did he end up on?

Thanks Carazzo, you've been a very good club man over the journey!

 

[Mr_Plow]

Best of luck in your future endeavours, Andrew!

 

[Wickzki]

Thanks Andrew. You were always a true credit to yourself with your hard work and
perseverance endearing yourself to Carlton fans everywhere. You'll be missed.

 

[MC_Doggy_Frog18]

Hope we have a good crack against the the hawks for Carrots.

 

[BluStreak]

He's one that you can say made the most of his opportunity. Well done and bon voyage!
