Vanders and Stretch on wing at the moment. Salem off ground but was back earlier.

Weid goal. Scores level.

Pies getting an armchair ride from the umps.

13-7 Pies

Preussy can kick.

We don't seem to have any time or space when we get the ball. They have plenty.

It's going to be a long season. ?

Cox is a head and change taller than our backmen.

Trac Harmes Gus also starting in the guts.

Preuss starting in the forward line. Max in the guts.

Maxy and Preuss out there. Wonder twin powers activate

Grundy and Wells running laps so they're not playing.

Decent crowd for a scratch match.

Sure I'm wearing a red and blue polo (and undies) but kudos to some filth fans in full regalia.

For me it's in no particular order. Rd 22 1987 out at the Western Oval that got us into the final. The win and listening to the wirelesses of people around us to hear the scores from the Geelong vs Hawthorn game and the roar when the siren went at that game and the fairytale nature of Doing it for Robbie. The next two weeks being the EF and the QF were special too. The PF as noted in the other thread holds number 1 spot for the most devastating loss. The Preliminary final in 88 was special because not only did we make the Grand Final but all my school mates were Carlton supporters and I couldn't wait to get to school on Monday. Our other Prelim win in 00 is special because from half time I was pretty confident that we were going to be playing in the Granny despite me usually never being comfortable until the final siren sounds.

Oh boy.

Interesting.

The week before was also ?

Remember this guy?
