Good effort

Carlton took a cue from the Western Bulldogs in round one last year when they ran a cheeky banner aimed at Richmond and Dustin Martin.

The banner took a shot at Dusty’s haircut, which went on to become iconic as he had one of the all-time great seasons and the Tigers won a record breaking flag.

 

Tonight their round one banner took the piss out of last year’s effort:

 

The banner must have worked, as Carlton came out on fire and booted the first five goals of the match.

Richmond clawed their way back however, and trail the Blues 4.4 (28) to 6.1 (37) at quarter time.
