King Charles royally requests that Carlton play Essington on King’s Birthday Eve, because Pies vs Dees “is kinda mid, no cap”

[V_23]

That’s right, your Royal Highness, King Charles, is none too pleased with the mediocre Collolingwood vs Melbin traditional King’s Birthday clash. He has personally requested, by Royal Decree, that a real team (the mighty Carlton Blues) beat up on a team of peasants (Essington) on his birthday celebration’s eve.

Apparently his favourite player is none other than King Charles Curnow, and he would love nothing more than to see him kick a bag against Essington.

Finally, a matchup fitting of the royal occasion.

Good old Charlie always likes a laugh, maybe April fools day would be more suited To Carlton and Essendon?

 

[HAPPY CHEFFY]

Juddy would drop Bec in a second for a crack at Di.

You know how back in the day they used to line people up in the town square and throw rotten tomatoes at them.

Instead of the big freeze we can bring our rotten vegetables to throw at them.

It will sell out every year. 10/10 marketing.

Whens Elmer getting back.

Chuck always wanted to be a tampon, he's a natural fit for Carlton.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

King Chuckles has also decreed neither team shall select rangas.

King Charles likes James Hird’s ears.

Have a look at these 2 minnow clubs trying to steal our thunder.

Like you and Richmond haven’t been trying to steal the Anzac Day occasion…

Mate I get other club supporters having a crack but you guys tried to vote your own club out of existence. Imagine having such little agency that you needed Hawthorn to decide your fate.

Even at our worst we still have a 30 year buffer on you guys before we even meet your level of crap half way...

Dees are forever minnows because they exist in spite of themselves.

Not sure Charles was even born when Essington last won a final. Just quietly…

What about Camilla?
Surely she’s old enough.

Pretty sure she won the Royal Ascot that year

Falkland war… check notes

Yep, confirmed. Even before Australia 2 and that Alan Bond cup.

Memory is foggy but I remember those more vividly than Essendon’s last final win.

He’s got ya there MG.

I think Spike Milligan said it best when he referred to Old Chas as "that little grovelling bastard", and with that in mind we should introduce a Spike's Birthday game (April 16th) between the Blues and the Bombers, two of football's greatest comedy acts

 

[zackah]

sigh

Another marquee game. s**t is starting to get boring

Isn't your blockbuster the Good Friday game with Norf?

When Jesus is crucified, a fitting game to be played away from the sight of the Saviour.

Why do all the male royals, except Harry, have poncy hair cuts?
Even the little kids do.

They used to have a guy that gave the King a trim, Oliver Cromwell. Don't much like him otherwise but good for that.
