1975 - Jezza The Real Story (page 2 of 5) 05/04/75. Jesaulenko\'s mark.jpg

Let's not mess about - one of the greatest moments in the history of the Carlton Football Club, let alone the history of football itself - saw one great man climb on the back of Graham 'Jerker' Jenkin to take the Mark of the Millennium. the picture symbolises everything great about this great game - athleticism, aerial ability, smashing Collingwood, and Carlton winning.

You can just sit back and hear the call right now...

"Jesaulenko....You Beauty"

Except that's not how it was supposed to be pronounced!

The research team at the Blueseum uncovered this pearler from a magazine. The great man, Jesaulenko himself, outlines that Jesaulenko was nothing more than Australian version of his surname!

Yesawoolonko...You Beauty!!!!
