You are just making stuff up here - I didn't say your entire posting history was you putting words in my mouth. I said it was evidence of you not being neutral. And once again I haven't discredited any view - you can have your view that it's a draw. I don't agree and that's fine. Why I brought up the lack of neutrals in this thread is because some Pies fans were acting like those non-Carlton/Collingwood fans were the true arbiters in this debate. That is simply not the case when those supporters have shown consistent bias in their postings in this thread either way.


Not flustered at all - just don't want to be lied about. Pretty simple stuff really.
The disagree button is like a wound to my battered soul. Please refrain if you have any compassion whatsoever.

"You are just making stuff up here" - see, that is very much what you're doing. You said "It is literally your entire posting history in this thread". A scandalous lie and one you are now denying.

Then once again going down the victim route. I'm simply constructing an argument that opposes yours. Sometimes the simplest way to do so is to express the opposite view to my own in a sarcastic way and show silly it is.

Answer me one question: do you actually believe that neutral opinion is that Carlton were irrefutably a better side than Collingwood in 2024? In other words that neutrals share the same view as you (but are lying because of bias). The scary thing is you might believe that.
 
And I dispute this - if a poster only agreed with what Carlton fans thought then they themselves wouldn't be neutral as I said above.
This is known as arguing for the sake of it.

Consensus neutral opinion would dictate that Carlton have a better full forward than Collingwood do. That they had a higher number of players who had elite seasons. But not that Carlton were a better performed side in 2024.

Two are obvious statements. One is not.

"Carlton and Collingwood were as good/bad as each other in 2024" does fit. You're completely delusional if you believe otherwise.

I said "it is literally your entire posting history in this thread" that is evidence for you not being neutral. That is not a lie. I don't base my view of you not being neutral on one or two posts.
 
His team is about to host a home prelin and he's still got time to fluff our balls against Carlton. I like this man. :pointup:😍
How am I meant to be preparing during the weekend off? Even when the Cats play Scott rarely requires me to get the boys ready.

"As bad as each other" is hardly a Collingwood endorsement. You guys were poor.

It is a lie as my entire posting history in this thread does not show that a) I like the Collingwood football club or b) hate the Carlton football club. I would much rather Carlton get their next flag before Collingwood does. That has not meant I agree with Carltons supporters certified declaration that they were a better team than Collingwood this season.

yep, we were pretty ordinary at times this year, can't deny that.

In a season where you miss the finals as reigning premier, beating Carlton twice and then watching them embarrass themselves in the finals numbs the pain - as does the fact that next year, their endless drought turns the BIG three-oh!!

I never said you like Collingwood or hate Carlton - not sure how many times I have to say it. You just favour one over the other in this thread

If I favoured Collingwood why wouldn't I share their opinion on who was irrefutably better this season? I have acknowledged both points of view. Both supporters doing victory laps makes the result self explanatory.
 
Coming from the person whose last remaining interest in this season is death riding the Cats and has spent the entire season pot shotting a third year Pies player.
Deathriding the Cats? Cats are rubbish so I really feel no need to deathride them.

I'll be rooting for anyone but Brisbane if they make it through tonight's match. Cats will get blown to smitherines by whoever's left anyway
 
were you alive during the period 1968-1982?
The AFL era is more my lived experience, hence it would be irrational to dislike Carlton. They beat us in one grand final when I was very young, the year after we beat them in a prelim. Otherwise we have never really shared the top part of the ladder in my time as a supporter.

so, a side in the final 4 are rubbish?? I suppose Carlton made the final 4 last year, and they were certainly rubbish.

Sure mate, that's why you have consistently said you'd love them to lose, that they are no good, are pretenders and will be found out as a weal side. All year.

No matter what happens in the prelim, Geelong have proven a much better side than Carlton this season and so it has mostly shut you up.

Also this doesn't make sense as you have death ridden Collingwood who were poor.

Don't try and pretend you don't intensely dislike the Geelong Football Club.

Cats are no good and are pretenders. Not sure why you'd have an issue with statements affirming that?

I mean hell you lost Carlton and Gold Coast by 10 goals each. Definition of pretenders

well, I was alive during that period. Whatever you think of us, Richmond or Hawthorn, you haven't experienced anything like a successful Carlton era. It is to be avoided at all costs. If you thought Kenny was a bad winner last night, ramp that up to 11 - from the President down.
