"They Know We're Coming" - Looking back

[juddsentant517]

worked a charm. Would've been very humiliating if we had done a richmond, but we are a club for making finals. Next year, they know we're here, the year after, they know we're staying

 

[Aphrodite]

Slogans for the next three year;

Veni
Vidi
Vici

Perfect

"We Came"
"We Saw"
"We Conquered"

How can anyone with No Teeth,2 black eyes and a broken nose be beautiful, and thats the women.

I think you forgot to mention their wildly grown facial hair as well.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

And here is a tip for you younguns.

Always smoke Menthols
'cos they are the cool peoples smoke.

6 out of 29 recommend it.

Cigarette smoke is bad for nerds.
Always take the minty.

So you are up watching the cricket then?

 

[Stig O'Hara]

yep.

 

[Uhumagoo]

Can't remember a slogan getting under oppositions fans skin as easily as this one. Hopefully next years will be similar. Far above the forgettable, uninspiring crap that usually gets dished out.

 

[BlueBelle]

They have certainly set the bar high this year with the slogan and it will be interesting to see what they come up with next year.

It's arrogance at it's best and we all love that once again, the arrogance is back!

Yep, the strutt. Remember this story? I loved it at the time and just re-reading it made me want to get up and ...well...strutt!

Carlton likes to strut. Whereas Essendon is smug, Collingwood vengeful and Richmond — justifiably — angry, the Blues know how to lord it over lesser clubs. Even now, as they deal with an irritating reprise of the tanking accusation, the Carlton faithful are thumbing their nose at the rest.
It matters not to them if outsiders want their president to step down, or believe they manipulated team selections to get the first pick. They're Carlton, and Richard Pratt and Brett Ratten are accountable only to their own. It's none of our damn business.

 

[Bluebear]

I know it's been the butt of many a lame and unfunny joke

Not for a couple of months now.

SEN on a Monday morning used to be backed up with moronic Tiges, Pies and Dons callers with their weekly chortle..........all is quiet nowdays.

I think it has to be the most successful AFL ad campaign since "Your unbelievable".

"Something Blue" didn't stir the callers......our boys have lived up to it........just hope they don't come up with "Now it's time" next year......the follow up will be interesting.

May have to bump it soon

It's done the exact job it was after..Carlton fans have enjoyed it, it's got a reaction out of others and it's been well remembered.
I was thinking another one you guys could have, i'm not sure how to word it, but something like "The Dark times are ahead again" Needs some tinkering, but what do you guys think?

And yes, i'm aware i'm an Essendon fan, this is a rare slip up where i have applauded Carlton for something.
F***cking cheating scum ahh better.

Remember the Dons were caught CHEATING, and found GUILTY. Perhaps you should grab yourself a mirror. lol. Understand what we all know i.e. Essendon are the AFL's gutter.

 

[TheRedPill]

"They Know We're Coming" will go down as one of the most successful slogans in the history of the AFL.

Yeah, opposition supporters may hang shit on us because of it, but who really cares?

Can anyone name any other clubs marketing slogan off the top of their heads? From this year or any other year? In fact, can anyone name any of our slogans from previous years?

I doubt it.

Yet EVERYONE knows Carlton's.

A marketing slogan is supposed to create talk and get the attention of the wider footballing community.

And that's exactly what it has done.

Hugely successful, and well done to the marketing department for coming up and going with the slogan.

Let the morons laugh.

Such a good way to look at it.

I can't even describe how this slogan has made us the talk of the town. Sure, it has been rubbed in our face on a few occasions but my word did it get everyone's attention. Just another way that we are standing out from the pack... no other AFL team has done this. Brilliant. Just need to back it up on the field...

How are unlisted going this year?

You're one of the many reasons I hate this board.

An Essendon supporters swallows their hatred and praises the slogan before giving us a tongue in cheek comment to stay in "character. Yet you can't help but troll and have a go at someone who lists a team that isn't Carlton.

cAsEy_18's last comment went right over your head.

You're a rocket surgeon.

For someone who hates the board you spend a lot of time on here!

There are more reasons to like it ATM.

Alpha's juice and MBIB's muffins.

I agree with ODN that some exist on here to make themselves feel better with their posts and not support the club.

I refuse to be cordial to anyone who is unlisted and comes on here to stir others using Carlton.

They should put up or shut up.

 

[VicO]

So we agree, it should win at Cannes next year
