Since December we have been asking Carlton Direct Members to tell us what they love about the Blues. Yesterday, Jessica Contarin walked away with a brand new Hyundai i20 - as this year’s Carlton Direct competition winner.

There was an unprecedented amount of entries with the task of choosing the winner a difficult one for our panel of judges.

In a close call, Jessica Contarin, 17 of Epping, Victoria, was judged as the competition winner and is now the owner of a brand new Hyundai i20, valued at over $18,000.

Jessica, who was understandably thrilled when she learned of the win, said it could not have come at a better time for her. “I was actually looking for a car at the moment because I turn 18 in about two months,” said Jessica. “I had actually been looking at the i20s!”

Jessica has her mum to thank for insisting that she enter the competition. Within her competition-winning entry, Jessica described how the Carlton Football Club brings the Contarin family together.


Jessica’s competition entry (25 words or less):

“What I love most about Carlton is how going to the games and supporting the club - brings me, my dad and my brother closer”


Jessica has been going to watch Carlton with her father and brother since she was a young girl and said that Carlton “means everything” to her and the family.

When Jessica was notified that she had won the competition she thanked Carlton Football Club and Hyundai for the opportunity and prize.

In accepting the major prize Jessica thanked those involved in hosting the competition. “I want to thank Hyundai, I want to thank Carlton, and I want to thank everybody else involved in the process, and I think it’s a wonderful thing. “said Jessica.

Jessica signed off, “It’s the best - thank Juddy for me as well.”
