IT'S a tick over 10 years ago since Carlton met the fledgling Greater Western Sydney team for the first time - under the roof of the venue now known as Marvel Stadium.
Not surprisingly, the seasoned home outfit - captained by the stand-in Kade Simpson in his 150th consecutive senior appearance - recorded a thumping 67-point win over the Giants, whose skipper in the No.6 was Luke Power.
Of course, now both call IKON Park as the respective AFLW and AFL Heads of Development.
Eddie Betts also notched game no.150 for the Blues, while Shaun Hampson booted three goals and earned as many Brownlow votes in a slashing 50th senior appearance.
An incredible 'Diesel'-esque Hampson handball to the running Andrew Walker to set up a fabulous Carlton team goal early in the final term has to be seen to be believed – as does a handy couple of goals from the big fella late in the contest.
