The best thing was Carlton's $500m deal to buy 10 hotels has collapsed ... the owners upped the asking price and the club couldn't afford it :lol:

It has cast doubt on their ability to pay Judd :lol:


They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

"We captured more and more business by going around the back door," Mr Pratt said.


Carlton, through and through!


They will not grow old, as those from more northern States grow old.
For them it will always be three-quarter-time, with the scores level
and the wind advantage in the final term.

You don't really believe that, surely. Crap journalism at it's best.

Carlton will shortly announce the biggest sponsorship in AFL history.

I don't know what she looked like 50+ years ago when he married her?

BTW I wish he was a Saints supporter.

Hey Budgie,
Your mob have some of his money through his son-in-law and I didn't see you give back any of the money Brad Cooper gave you?

Wasn't your merchandise dept a drug dealing front?

And if we really want to go back far enough, wasn't your Club run on the proceeds of gambling/theft/prostitution and any other criminal activity Wren had a piece of?

What a fine bunch of criminal scum.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!
