I was thinking back to 97 when we had that game against Adelaide ( you

know ... when we used to actually win matches)


Why can't we do that M and M chocolate sponsorship again?

Change the guernsey for a day and get $200,000 - i would be willing to eat more m & m's if they were willing to revisit the concept.

Maybe they can alter the concept in some small way?

Thinking outside the box, we could have organised a special one-off St Patricks day game - we could have gone green to coincide with the release of green m&m's, Aisake and Setanta could have run around in the shamroick for a day...

I'll always remember the M&Ms game fondly. I was living in Melbourne at the time, and as it was against the Crows, my grandfather's team, I called him up after attending the game to have a chin wag about the match. They were my last words with him before he passed away.

Correct

and

Almost Correct

It was Balkwill's only game in Blue. Not Navy Blue of course, but Light Blue. Poor guy played for Carlton but never in the navy blue.
