The Blues have played finals in three seasons between 2010-2019, culminating in wins in 2011 and 2013.
Carlton has since finished inside the bottom four in three of the past four years, and are destined to finish there once again this season.
The Blues have had some ups and downs over the past 10 years, but these 10 men have stood tall.
Chris Judd
Judd came to the club in 2008 in a trade with the West Coast Eagles, and immediately made an impact on the group, where he was awarded as captain of the club upon his arrival. Judd played 21 of the 22 home-and-away games through the 2008 season was named All-Australian captain and ruck rover in the 22-man squad and won the best and fairest of the Carlton Football Club also.
In 2009, Judd led the Blues to their first finals in a number of years and won the club's best and fairest for a second straight season. In 2010, Judd won the Brownlow Medal, polling 30 votes while also being named All-Australian in that season and winning a third best and fairest in a row in the process.
One of Judd's memorable moments was leading the Blues to a 2013 elimination final comeback win when the result seemed almost all but lost.
Judd was as influential as it gets for the team and the club as a whole with his ability to break out of stoppages, being a fantastic user of the ball and lead from the front, and his time with the Blues from 2010 until finishing up in 2015 gave everyone around the club a sense of belief that anything was possible.
Normally not one single player has that ability, but Judd brought that aura to the Blues and left an imprint for the Blues moving forward where he is still actively involved in the management side of things.
