Incredible!
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

First win at Etihad against the Cats! Really dented their premiership aspirations! Wonder what Henderson thinks now!

I was out at lunch and following the game on my mobile. Just got back home to listen to the last few minutes on the radio. Ridiculously good win by the boys.

Very glad to have egg on my face after tipping the Cats. Terrific effort by the boys. Very well done.

Murphy had barely a touch: I assume he was injured. That makes this result stand out even more! Not to mention that 2 cripples had to play!

@Crash...
Murphy did his ankle after just 9 minutes.
Sumner made it to 20mins before suffering a similar fate.

2 on the bench all game.

Army injured late and a couple others required treatment.

One word - GUTSY.

Goes to show just how horrific the decision to let Mick Malthouse get his hands on this club was imo.

Players like Gibbs are reinvigorated and playing like they are in the top few mids in the competition, yet everyone wanted them gone. Kreuzer breaks the record for tackles by any Carlton player in a game vs Geelong.. KREUZER!!!

In the last quarter it still would not have bothered me if Cats had overrun us (well it would have, but I still would have been stoked with the effort by this group to that stage), but instead we were still the better team in the last as well.

Bolton is already shoe-in for Coach of the Year imo, with no disrespect to Roos, Scott, Scott or anyone else.
He turned one of the least competitive units in the competition into a real football team again, 2 years earlier than ANYONE could have imagined.
Goals for 2017

Play the most anti-social football in the AFL

Just looking at the stats: the 1st chance I've had:
Gibbs: 34 possessions and 8 tackles!
Curnow: 29 possessions and 9 tackles!
Docherty: 29 possessions and 8 marks
Cripps: 29 possessions and 7 tackles!
Kreuzer: 14 possessions, 18 taps and 11 tackles! (only 1 mark Sad )
Live Long and Prosper!
