Of all the rivalries in the League, this one would seem to have the most historical reason for being. Apart from these 2 Clubs being the only Clubs to have been in every year of the VFL / AFL competition, they've also played in 6 Grand Finals against each other. Thankfully, the Blues are 5-1 in yet another stat that goes our way:
| Year | Result |

1938|
Carlton by 15 points | |
| 1970 | Carlton by 10 points |
