Banter Carlton is better in 2024. Who will be better in 2025? Carlton or Collingwood? Part 3

[Irish BlueBagger]

Back to the olden days again. Are you aware you have 30 year of supporters with families who have never seen a premiership in their memory? It’s a very selfish outlook to have to constantly drag discussions back to those days to flex.

1987 was when the competition went national. It's where the modern era of footy starts for me.

The thread has reached its climax, why are we still haggling over minor details. Enjoy the off season and reload again for next year.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

At least we were there, unlike the bottom 10 scrubbers.

It's a shame the AFL don't give out participation trophies.

 

[Mr Meow]

The Hawks have taken both your club and my club to the cleaners in terms of flags won since 1987 sadly.

So have Geelong.

And West Coast.

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

So have Geelong.

Carlton two flags, Collingwood three flags, Geelong four flags and Hawthorn seven flags.

Your club is closer to us than it is the Hawks on my flags won since 1987 list.

I suppose Liverpool have only won one more Premier League title than Forest Green Rovers. They’re pretty close!

Why is Voss getting a pass?
If you look at your coach's record, apart from half a year in 2023 it's been a big fail. Best spine in the comp plus Cripps is plenty for any coach to work with. Yet the Sum total equals less than the parts at Carlton. Game plan, system and "brand" clearly are not strengths under Voss. Selection issues too.

The best part about all this is the amount carlton supporters ragging on Hinkley and port on the numerous other threads .

They do realise Voss was Hinkleys 2ic for like 6 odd years?

I mean they went appointed and extended his side kick to run their football program!!

It’d be like trashing Batman for not being a good enough meanwhile having Robin as your favourite superhero

Like Blackburn Rovers and Leicester City, Liverpool 2020 were a very good flash in the pan league winning team!

This is our thread and we won it, your post shows just how delusional some Pie supporters are.

Sincere congrats on your threadship mate.

 

[daicosdemis]

What a fantastic way to end the season. Beaten by a better team on the night while the Pies fans cheered from Cancun squealing about how tragically awful we are despite being better than they were all season!

Bring on the off season!

FANTASTIC way to end the season !!! Won 2 out of your last 10, the 2 wins coming against North and West coast.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

You had us coming 16th this year and you want to claim you arent a troll?

That's a lie, but at the end of the day, pretty close! Carlton were the 15th best team in the end

 

[MadMundy]

So much for them being better, Collingwood would have put up more of a fight, one of the most embarassing first halves I've ever seen from a team.

Bruh Collingwood were down like 60 points to North

Collingwood at least came back. Reckon you'll be enjoying some time near the bottom.

Yep disappointing but still better than Collingwood

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Collingwood are all chips in in a fat german and a bunch of old dudes . You'll know all about topping out very shortly

Carlton are all chips in on a fat German coach and a bunch of injured dudes, topped out last year at 5th

 

[Corn Cobbers]

At least we were there, unlike the bottom 10 scrubbers.

60-0 says you weren't there worst finals performance in history

 

[Robertio]

Sincere congrats on your threadship mate.

I want a trophy.

Pies went from 1st to 9th with a bullet. It's only going to get worse.

You know this for a fact ?
Can't say you would know this through your own experiences , because , well , you follow Fremantle

This post confirms that you’re indeed, mad.

 

[daicosdemis]

Three flags in seventy years, 1915, 1938, 1970, 1979 and 1981, losing a grand final to St Kilda, and their so called "all mighty team" finishing below an injury ridden Carlton team this year.

It was well worth denying them a finals spot, the facts are that finishing above Collingwood is a premiership in itself to Carlton.

I won't shy away from this fight i won't back down, Collingwood are a bigger joke of a club than Carlton!

It will take more than a replay win against St Kilda, and a corrupt umpiring influenced flag win to convince me otherwise!

If i offered you 2 wins against the pies, finish behind us only on percentage and then the pies go on to get absolutely humiliated in the final ? Would you take it ?
Every day of the week would be the answer, Carlton fans just don't have the testicular fortitude to admit to it.

The AFL era is when the competition was actually called the AFL: 1990 onwards. If your club has won multiple flags in time frame they have some kind of claim to being a relevant/successful side of the modern era. Yes, even if they were terrible for most of it like Richmond.

Hawthorn 5
Geelong 4
West Coast 4
Collingwood 3
Brisbane 3
Richmond 3
Sydney 2
Essendon 2
North Melbourne 2
Adelaide 2

Then there are Tier 2 sides, who have saluted once:

Melbourne
Port Adelaide
Carlton
Western Bulldogs

60-0 is historic stuff, we'll never see that in a final again (unless Carlton get back there one day)

Of course anyone else would have done better

Terrible team selection and management reflected on the field, a full choke from a mentally fragile club
