It's a few weeks away still but heres a big :thumbsup: to Carrazzo and Thornton on their very big milestones coming up.

Carrazzo's 100th reflects a great ethic and attitude to get there. After debuting late in 2004 with those 2 games deep in the pocket, Carrazzo has only missed a handful of games and is set to crack the 100.

Thornton has been a mainstay ever since that surprising debut against Freo in 2002 (?). Sure he has got frustrated but wouldnt you after the decade we've had. While his 4 goals from 149 games has a few of you calling for a move up forward, I see Thornton as a lock for half back and a key player in the years ahead.

Congrats gents, great stuff.

I acknowledge the individual pieces of brilliance both have shown.

No one is perfect...yeah Judd's close....but these 2 players (ex rookie mind you) have been mainstays for a long long time.

I too believe their best is ahead of them.
After all they've just hit their 100th and 150th milestones.

We are so lucky with our No.1 selections and our rookies.
We've got to be close to a flag given how the ducks have lined up for us against such mammoth adversity.

Go Carrots and T Bird :thumbsup:

To both Carazzo and especially Thornton who I am surprised did not have a mental breakdown in his early days playing in that asylum known as the Carlton defence .... Congratulations ! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Hard to believe a 100 gamer could still be a Rising Star fancy. Testament to his endurance.

Gee wiz , talk about scraping the bottom of the barrell. these 2 mainstays are very fortunate to be reaching their respective milestones. Surely both have clearly shown major deficiences in their ability over the years, especially carazzo who has IMO, NOT IMPROVED ONE IOUTA on his defensive and overall skill level ,since his b&F. and as for Thornton he will be always will and only be remembered as a floating half back flanker who really has no accounatbility when it come to be beating an opponent one on one. Both have been very fortunate to have been a part of some very ordinary carlton sides over the past 6 years...
