This week,
there's No Judd Kerr Priddis Cousins, Hurn Hunter and possibly No Cox.

Before we all back ourselves in those old enough will recall a day at Waverley. A final no less. The Cats had 3 late changes. Bews, Bruns and Bairstow - all out.

Easy we thought.

We didn't WIN!!

Was this the game that ended our season for the year?

'
Yeah, that was great win. The greatest Carlton backs to the wall' win. Round 3 2001. Essendon* were all conquering winning the premiership and beating North by 85 points, I think, the week before. Hawthorn pumped us the week before so we were down and out.

No Bradley, Silvagni, Kouta and Allan had been injured for a while with his foot (never the same after that). Our coach and Campo were unbelievable that day and Fev - a fringe player then - kicked 3. Poor Lance was fat and struggling too, but rose in the last quarter.

Dermott Brereton described it as Australia 'A' fronting up to the 'Invincibles' and getting over the top.

Simon Fletcher dobbed one outside fifty after taking a screamer. I don't think he ever took a mark like that in his life nor had ever kicked that far before. It was unbelievable.

What a win!
