Bad Blues ban

Banned: Pin-up-boy Ryan Houlihan is not allowed back in Crown casino.

TWO Carlton stars have been banned by Crown casino after brawling with

hotel staff in another embarrassing blow to the football club.

The latest fiasco for Carlton came when Ryan Houlihan and Andrew Walker -

one of them dressed only in his underpants - emerged from a lift into

the Crown Promenade Hotel foyer early on Sunday.

Haha can you smell what the blues are cookin'?

Fev wasn't the only rotten egg by a long shot

Although I'm loathe to throw stones.

I have a lot of confidence in our boys at the moment, all seem like good kids, but its inevitable they'll slip up at some time...

But you have to admit, this couldn't have happened to a more deserving club! ;)

Sure got me laughing at 6:30 this morning when i awoke to hear the news. Such a club Carlton.

At least 2/3 of their 16 Flags won under very dodgy circumstances!!!

who could forget Lance Angwin??

True.

A bit of storm in a teacup pre Xmas. In the range of naughty boy behaviours this has alot of hoopla.

10-11 flags under dodgy circumstances.... 45Hg16 was right. What a load of carp.

From 1965-1995 a Lot of Brown Paper Bags would have passed around Princes Park I have no doubt. George Harris & Elliott. I don't think it's crap at all

Prior to the salary cap was it really an issue? Proof???

1995 was a flag definitely purchased against the rules. The others --------------------------------> = Long Bow

I can supply some proof. I have spoken to Blues players of that era who admitted it to me and have spoken to blues supporters who admitted filling the bags. Good enough?

Yes i went to the Carlton Social Club a number of times in the 80's, Mates of the Old Man invited us in.

Great Social Club don't get me wrong-But the paper bags were often filled! Carlton viewed it as their right!

Your word is your honour Redleg. Crikey!

Until the AFL had the salary cap the bags of money did not breach any AFL rules did they?

If I were a Blues fan I would be wondering at the moment about the coach Brett Ratten and captain Chris Judd. They're nowhere to be seen at a time when the club is releasing pithy statements about $5,000 fines and hiding their heads in the sand. I'd be wondering when are we going to see some leadership because if they're not visible making strong statements about the direction of the club now then where are they going to be when under pressure in the heat of the action?

In fact, Chris Judd has a habit about being around clubs that have this sort of culture... maybe behind scenes he isn't the great leader he is portrayed to be.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
