Thousands of fans watched on as things boiled over.
The out-of-a-contract Silvagni has a knee injury and is an outside chance to be fit for Carlton’s second final, if they beat the Swans.
It will be the 28-year-old’s first final after 180 games - and a Brownlow Medal last year - over a decade. The tough midfielder is excited by the prospect of lining up again at a packed MCG and senses a similar vibe from long-suffering Blues fans, who have been on a rollercoaster ride with Michael Voss’s team this season.
“We’re fortunate playing for a big club like Carlton we play in prime-time slots ... so although a lot of us haven’t played in a final we feel like mentally we have.”
