How you remember Darren Milburn likely depends on who you barrack for.
For supporters of 16 other teams, you may remember him as a decent player.

But what if you’re a Carlton supporter? How do you view Darren Milburn?
If you are a Blues supporter, it is likely that one incident dominates your memory of Milburn’s 292 games. You know the one, right? It was the one that had supporters look as likely as they’ve ever been to jump the fence and assault a player.
