Did I do this well?
An extra month in Bali > Participation awards.I’m actually happy to see you lot up and about after a few wins. It was fairly doom and gloom when the Pies pulled your pants down (again) in Round 23. It’s actually a shame your happiness has to be cyclical and you guys will be down in the dumps again come August
Your currently in 5th place - which is ok.Did I do this well?
Yet to kick any goals and have any real game breaking performances like he did last year.
Hasn’t been bad but certainly room for improvement.

You should try it out.

Bad news is you’ve peaked and have nothing more to offer.
2023 HAS to be the year Collingwood wins a flag, doesn't it? Forget the banter for a sec - their form has been awesome and their game style and execution vary between very good and best. If they can't do it in '23 - do Pendelubury and Sidebottom have another contender year in them? Take Pendlebury out of on-field leadership and Sidebottom's smarts - irreplaceable players in my book - despite their weird looks - would have been a privilege to have them in the Navy Blue colours.
Losing the two ruckmen for a few weeks is a worry - but clearances aren't Collingwood's one wood anyway. I wouldn't be surprised to see them cruise through until one of their rucks is back.
Meanwhile, Carlton has only kicked 100 once this year- and that was against Norths and Docherty can be added to the injury list now.
The 'odds' say that Collingwood have already won the topic under discussion.
Collingwood might lose another to St Kilda ( I wouldn't bet on it though) - but Carlton is probably in for its first loss this year against Adelaide.
This thread is reading like a Fadgey hedge - if Collingwood don't win a flag in '23 - (he knows you are done at the end of the year) - he can always look forward to at least finishing higher than Carlton...what a genius.
Any other result is not worth thinking about for a Collingwood tragic.
LOL - I hope both sides stay within reach of each other for the whole year... LOLs a plenty.
No-one from Collingwood is allowed near Bali for a little while... or the US. I'd rather they were pre-occupied with finals, and then losing than letting their hair down overseas, or near smartphone cameras.
Can you elaborate on your view that Collingwood has peaked? This appears to be a common narrative amongst some Carlton supporters that Collingwood has peaked, and Carlton have scope for improvement. Its like you guys go with this to give yourselves some warm, fuzzy feelings that it will only get better, but there is no logic reasoning behind this.

It’s pretty simple - Collingwood have played to their capacity the first couple of weeks, they couldn’t preform any better.No-one from Collingwood is allowed near Bali for a little while... or the US.

Even to the point some on here hilariously tout Collingwood as prem favourites after week 2 - their peak.
Now you're getting it lol, next week it might be you guys saying it and the week after it might be us again.No-one from Collingwood is allowed near Bali for a little while... or the US.

Nah mate it's called supporting your team.It's otherwise known as 'Wishful Thinking'...
Saints are sitting on top of the ladder having won their first 4 games in impressive fashion.It’s pretty simple - Collingwood have played to their capacity the first couple of weeks, they couldn’t preform any better.

Will they even beat saints this week - it’s 50/50.
Lol nope - 2nd at best, at best.Bad news.... Collingwood remain the team to beat.AFL power rankings: Perfect Saints demoted despite fourth consecutive win
We rank every AFL club from 1 to 18 based on current form, and there has been some big movers after Round 4.7news.com.au
Interested to hear how Collingwood 'got found out' against Richmond, despite winning comfortably and having 9 more scoring shots?
Brisbane in Brisbane will be the hardest road trip in footy this year - they've already accounted for Melbourne and Collingwood.Lol nope - 2nd at best, at best.
Yes you beat Richmond by an amazing 14 points.
Then proceeded to be pumped by Brisbane by 33 - on the same scoring shots BTW .
Scoring shots accounts for very little unless you can kick goals.
The trend is downward for Collingwood - 1st two weeks ago, down to 5th now.
Points scored total first 2 rounds 260 - last two rounds 146.
Collingwood only has one gear - run& gun.
Stop that & there’s nothing left.
Who’s above us? Melbourne?? We don’t lose to Melbourne therefore are automatically #1Lol nope - 2nd at best, at best.

Indeed - don’t get me wrong, I think Collingwood are the best team to watch right now, that doesn’t make them the hardest team to beat.Brisbane in Brisbane will be the hardest road trip in footy this year - they've already accounted for Melbourne and Collingwood.
Why do you think the neutral analysts are giving Collingwood a Mulligan for the result?
Was their first match without a ruckman, and it clearly influenced the result;
Still had the same number of scoring shots;
It's a long year, maybe we have to tweak the gamestyle when teams get a run-on against us? We've got 20 weeks to work that out.
I don't subscribe to the theory that 2023 is Collingwood's 'last chance' at a flag. Fly coming in as coach has rejuvenated the list, and we're seeing greater output and potential from the mid-tier players in that 23-28 age group, which could possibly see Collingwood extend that premiership window further as we wait on the 18 to 22 group to mature and try and fulfil their potential.
I still don't understand this (il)logic.To your point - this is about the next 20 weeks - how anyone could be realistically called favourites after 4 games is a little daft.
I still don't understand this (il)logic.
Are Collingwood more likely to win the premiership than Hawthorn?
Are Melbourne more likely to win the premiership than West Coast.
Can we assess all other teams based on what we know right now to estimate the likelihood of them winning the premiership?
If not, when is a reasonable time to start talking about who is more likely, and who is not?
You can talk about it all you want.I still don't understand this (il)logic.
