That's the likely origin. Are you on their mailing list as a CFC supporter ? Maybe one of your mates sent it ?

It's not bad IMO. The one just below that on the Carlton rebuild is pretty good as well.

The truth hurts unfortunately.

Some Collingwood or Essendon Supporter has got into Wikipedia to post this gem in the Wooden Spoon article.

Quote
Carlton are the only team in the 159 year history of Australian rules football to have both their men's and women's teams 'win' the wooden spoon in the same season, happening in 2018.

Mate sent it.

Also got images of a wooden spoon sent.

They haven't gone to the same effort as they did for our time finishing bottom in 2002 when I found a wooden spoon painted blue with glitter on it in the letterbox.

Hopefully this will be our last spoon for a very long time ...

It was done live on the Front Bar. Funny if you're not one of us.  :( :-[ >:(

Wow - someone had a secret admirer. Went to the effort of painting it and hand delivering it.

What colour was the glitter ?  :D

Not that you ever want the wooden spoon but if you can’t win the premiership why not the spoon because there is nothing in between  :)

Playing finals, finishing top 4, minor premiers....................

You don't actually get a physical object as such, but then, neither does the AFL hand out wooden spoons. They rely on the kindness and generosity of fans for that.
