Hey Bay,

so, as you may have heard, everybody's favourite career criminal (apart from Glenn Wheatley) has passed away.

At this sad time, the question is, which club did he most closely represent?

I'll kick it off by saying Carlton - never followed the rules, kept breaking them even after punished, and liked money in brown paper bags.

Looks great in Carlton colours, too. :thumbsu:

A kind of tribute to the character he was.

Yes he was a scumbag, but there was an amusing side to him.
I think the public persona of Chopper, was mostly perpetrated by a perverse media, and Chopper himself. This was a far cry from the real and sadistic Chopper mate.
There was no honour with this man, not amongst his criminal circles, not amongst the broader community.
 
He most closely represents University

Chopper is a rusted sign post from an earlier time, marking a very different era than the one we live in. He has no relevance to the present, and will have less supporters in death as each year passes
