Carlton Choke Watch

[Cyclops]

As we all know, Carlton have evolved into a club doomed to fail. Since the AFL removed their corrupt zones and clamped down on their rampant cheating they've done nothing and won nothing.

Crazy Vossy has turned the club on its head in an effort to transfuse some winning blood into the failure addicted Blues, and by golly he's had an effect.

When will their true nature reassert itself? When will Carlton's waters break, rebirth as their true selves and irrevocably (not mathematically, I'm talking about the vibe) exit the finals race?

Get your votes in flogs, no late changes.

Can you define your expectations of:

1) What Carlton should deliver
2) What would constitute a failure

As I would say if you expected us to win the flag then a prelim loss would def be a choke. Whereas if you expect us to not make finals than losing to Freo wouldnt really be a choke.

10,000+ days and the few remaining Bay flogs are still taking victory laps

Can you define your expectations of:

1) What Carlton should deliver

Another year of not winning a flag

2) What would constitute a failure

See above

See above

If you dont expect something then it isnt a choke. A choke is when somethings expected and you dont deliver.

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

Well that’s exactly the point isn’t it… you’ve been expecting a flag to be handed to you

Its a poll, you say what your expectations are!

Carlton are in this to win the flag, like every other club.

I say you'll bomb out in round 24.

When do you say they give up the ghost? Come on, show some balls, no hedging.

Didn’t read any posts or the poll

I think you just need to come out and say "Carlton are flag faves and wont lose on ability but may lose due to a choke" rather than beating around the bush with this fred.

Wow, even the two biggest bullshit Tankers on the Bay don't think they'll win

 

[Sqotty from office works]

Picked dockers this week.

Picked plenty of winners and picked Carlton for premiership and that counts.

Of course I think they will win. Thats why I couldnt vote in the poll. At this stage it appears only 4 people think Carlton will choke whereas I can only assume the rest of the world believes Carlton will win the flag.

 

[Footy Is The Win]

Are they actually even in the premiership race? I mean c'mon, it's Carlton!

That's the spirit!

It's actually a no lose situation for your mob, any sort of loss can be written off because of the ground (we all have hoodoo grounds, ours is Docklands), and if you win it'll be hard to keep the lid on.

Collinflogs already jumped off their own team’s chances of winning the flag and have resorted to death-riding the Blues.

Oh, dear… it’s only April…

I called a Pie 4peat 2023-2026 in late 2022.

Clinging on to hope!

Mainboard carlflogs up and about like they've already won the 2024 premiership. How good will it be when we're sending welfare checks to the mind broken campaigners later on in the year?

It will be sweet...

...but if they do win...

...it will be the Carlpocalypse.

Seems you are resigned to us winning.

Have to have a job to resign mate...

Anyway how about you, when are Carlton dropping their emotional bundle?

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

 

[Cyclops]

Well I didn't have this in the poll, how embarrassing!

I guess it's a choke because Crows are crap, but really it was a random loss because of injuries.

...wait I forgot it's the Bay,. Will Carlolton even win another game this year?

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

it was a random loss because of injuries

I thought missing Walsh was the only thing that prevented them from winning the flag last year?

Well, that and their complete inability to win a PF and relying on Turdnow to kick goals in finals

I see you’ve now lost your memory as well as your sense of humour

Oh dear look who's back and here i was hoping you'd be gone forever
