Milham Hanna quite literally walked in off the street, but in truth he came to Carlton from half way round the world. Born in Kantara in Northern Lebanon, Mil found his feet in neighboring East Brunswick, just a short tram ride down Sydney Road to the front entrance of the place then known as Princes Park.
Arriving in Melbourne with his mother and sister on Cup Day 1971, Mil, then five years old, had a premonition he would one day play for the Carlton Football Club. It would happen some 15 years later with disastrous consequences at VFL Park, but it would end 189 games later with a Premiership medallion to show for it.
In Part 1 of his chat with Tony De Bolfo, Mil chats about his early life and the start of his Carlton career.
