Another Carlton gem

Blues adopt "controversial" slogan

Its quiet...not a lot "Melbourne" happening and then this gem appears.

Well if nothing else Carlton certainly have no short reserve of ego !! That in itself is fine but you somewhat need to back such things up or they become not just commentable but comical !!

Last year we had "They know were coming" and by golly that put the scares up everone !! :rolleyes: Apart from any sleazy connotations it really forgot to tell anyone "to do what " ?? It all ended up a bit like the 5:15 from Flinders St ; it came...it went... nothing terribly much else to note :lol:

Now we have..oooohhh wait for it... "Can You Smell What The Blues Are Cooking" . accompanied by imagery of Judd, Gibbs, Murphy and Kreuzer standing around a Premiership Cup that is being used as a cooking pot with a Magpie and a Bomber inside.

Sinister things are afoot my friends ... :lol::lol: They all do however look rather off-colour and sickly, boogadee boogadee !!

That they've copied ( essentially ) a catch-cry of the Rock only serves to show how imaginative this lot are.

So in answer to Visy land...can we smell it ?? sure can.....smells like a Crock of Sh!t !!!! ;)

    hahaha thats terrible who do they think they are "the rock"?

    Oh dear god.

    Last year's slogan, while a pathetic representation of what they achieved in a sense, was a very clever marketing ploy.

    They've obviously tried to better that and failed miserably. The only thing they seem to be cooking is epic fail branding!

    (Couldn't happen to a more revolting organisation! :D)

    They're becoming more and more of a laughing stock. And if they don't win a flag by the time Judd retires, that will just make for more comedy gold.

  • Quote

    That's the funniest thing I've seen since Darren Cutherbertson's gem.

    Far out. Given their record against those 2 this year was 1-3, it's not a great start.

    To paraphrase Shakespeare.

    "Double, double toil and trouble;

    Fire burn, and caldron bubble.

    Fillet of a Waite,

    In the caldron boil and bake;

    Eye of Judd, and toe of Chook,

    Mullet of Sticks, and tongue of Swann,

    Setanta’s baulk, and the outer wing,

    Fev’s now gone, so who’ll have a ping,—

    For a charm of powerful trouble,

    Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

    Double, double toil and trouble;

    Fire burn, and caldron bubble."

    Can you smell what the Blues are cooking...

    :lol:

    Yeah, it's a bit on the nose...

    They need a few more fresh ingredients over a couple of years if they want to plate something up.

    Our side might be ready by then. :P

    I wonder if The Rock copywrited that saying, and if so, how much Carlton paid for it. I hope they didn't pay for it and get unstuck and made to look like fools

    Ha ha, that poster is brilliant!

    I had a good laugh at this slogan, maybe I was one of the only ones to think last years slogan (although arrogant and cocky) wasn't that bad. I would be very interested to be in some of the marketing meetings when this idea got thrown up...

    As already stated just a blatant rip off of The Rock

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
