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

[doppleganger]

Show me where they were ranked 3rd best team?

Nobody cares or officially ranks how teams perform in finals. The premier is all that matters, nobody really cares if you play well and lose an EF or SF.

But because it is sooooo important to you.

In 2023, only 3 of the 8 finalists finished with more points for than points against.

Collingwood
Brisbane
GWS

All 5 other finalists conceded more points than they scored.

GWS were the 3rd best performed team of the 2023 finals series, something that absolutely nobody gives a shit about except for a few nuffie Carlton fans, because they think draft order = performance

Nice melt lol.

 

[Fadge]

Yet you disregard our injury crisis because a lot of them weren’t in our top 15 (according to you).

Make up your mind buddy.

What has my post got to do with your alleged 'injury crisis'?

Did you just want to throw in the term 'injury crisis' for the 5478th time this century?

Tough to respond to facts.

Collingwood

Carlton were supposedly "better when it mattered" because they were 5th after H&A.

We've really f****d your head mate, it's only footy.

I haven't gone the 'I know you are, what am I?' route since I was in grade 2.

I'm assuming that was your last year at school?

None of those dates say 2024 or 2025, now this is the 2024 ladder

So just to clarify... Where does Fudgey have us placing next season? I saw a comment about bottom 6 but I'd love to hear where he's got us coming before his final assessment after the pre seasons wrap up

Forget Membrey playing for Collingwood with an injured McStay and Mihocek in 2024.
He sure would have been handy playing instead of Harry "I can't kick a goal to save myself" Mackay

I love footy and love how sh1t Carlton are.

You know Carlton has dudded Bagger fans when they are desperately clinging to a draft order as "evidence" of a pretend imaginary "written in history" 3rd ranking.

What they could do is bring him in to replace Curnow if Carlton are lucky enough to make finals at any stage over the remainder of Curnow's career.

Membrey our third best pick up is literally better than Haynes, Carlton’s sole acquisition

The powers that be at AFL house CARE, as they use those rankings as an OFFICIAL guide to determine the draft order for the national draft.

What is with THE random caps?

The AFL ladder are the RANKINGS that are the OFFICIAL guide to determine draft order.

If 5th loses their elimination by 100 points, and 7th goes down in a thriller in their elimination final - 5th is still placed after 7th in the draft order.

Only a nuffie WOULD use the draft ORDER as their "evidence" FOR being better when IT matters.

Oh for the love of God!
Can't we all just get along?

Why?

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Why?

Wasn't a serious suggestion..
A Carlton Collingwood banter thread where we all just get along would be..... ......different.
We should all be made to say three positive things about the other club.
I'll go first.
1. Carlton used to be a very good club.
2. Carlton were very close to beating Collingwood this year. Only just failed right at the end there. Good effort.
3. Owies really came good this year I thought.

4. Carlton looked as though they could have been genuine premiership contenders in June, but then July arrived.

5. Back when Carlton used to play in grand finals last century they had a really good win ratio in them.
