All this false inspired confidence in Melbourne is really tedious. We’ve struggled to kick our way out of a paper bag. No way we kick a score against Collingwood.

You've still got a best midfield of Gawn, Petracca, Oliver and Viney, and we still don't have N DaicosCollingwood’s inclusions are big. You have a seriously potent forward line. Our forward structure is flaky, particularly now without Melksham. Fritsch is / was injured. If Fritsch is not 100% then we are going down the Tom McDonald route and expecting big things from Neal-Bullen and Pickett. It doesn’t inspire confidence.
I just think Collingwood is far too well rounded. Our backline will weather the storm for a while but we will be outnumbered against a very good opposition. Our only hope is some remarkable lift from two forwards other than Fritsch to kick 3-4 accompanied with an absolutely dominant midfield display. We are talking Gawn heroics and Petracca magic.
Collingwood will win this easily.
So says youForm against sides come finals is irrelevant.
Gee, Carlton supporters had better hope their result against Sydney this season isn't a sign of things to come for next Friday night...So says you
Id like to think that Carlton take their form against Port/ coll/ melb with them when they play next week.Gee, Carlton supporters had better hope their result against Sydney this season isn't a sign of things to come for next Friday night...
The one from before our winning streak? Fingers crossed!
Yes, of course....Id like to think that Carlton take their form against Port/ coll/ melb with them when they play next week.
The last time they played Sydney , Carlton was a different team back then as everyone is aware.
#metoo.I’m feeling as confident about Collingwood as I have in over 2 months.
With the H&A season wrapped up, Fly and the crew can finally get into the real stuff - they’ve clearly been waiting for this for a couple of months now.
Will be great seeing Collingwood showing the rest of the competition why they were 16-2 at one stage.
It’s not so much about personnel (whether it’s in, or out), it’s about going back to work and playing ruthless football.
Can’t wait for Thursday night.
Who do you think will win ?Yes, of course....
You all need to be clearer about which results during the home and away season count, and which ones don't...
BTW, I expect Sydney are also a 'different team' from the one you played in late May. They weren't exactly flying at the time, coming off a loss to Freo at their home ground, and a very fortunate 3 point win against North Melbourne.
I don't really care. Finals is all about the real contenders, and they're the top 4.Who do you think will win ?
Yet you continue to comment. If you don't care , how do you know so much and share your views on these sides ? Just saying...I don't really care. Finals is all about the real contenders, and they're the top 4.
But you said you didn't care ???Gee, Carlton supporters had better hope their result against Sydney this season isn't a sign of things to come for next Friday night...
So I know. You’re all giddy because you’re playing finals, you’re jumping around like a teenager who lost his virginity last night. The stark realisation that home and away means very little is something you’ll learn.So says you
I've seen more finals than you've probably had hot dinners , you johnny come latelys.So I know. You’re all giddy because you’re playing finals, you’re jumping around like a teenager who lost his virginity last night. The stark realisation that home and away means very little is something you’ll learn.
They’re about to play Melbourne in a final. This is where they do the opposite of fall away.
With all the talk about Collingwood not being up to it etc, I full expect the opposite. Collingwood will beat Melbourne by 40-50 points. From there, the GF is locked.
I was at the 1986 Blues v Swans final, it was a hostile environment for the red and whiteWho do you think will win ?
Don’t get on your high horse, it is a banter thread. As you knowNo more worrying than is coming back our way - from the same crew responding to me, as chance would have it.
It’s the point of banter threads like this, don’t you know.
If the same result happens then unfortunately your next winning streak will have to wait until the 2024 season.The one from before our winning streak? Fingers crossed!
Because Fadge is a known Carlton hater and troll.Yet you continue to comment. If you don't care , how do you know so much and share your views on these sides ? Just saying...
I know he is a a carlton troll.Because Fadge is a known Carlton hater and troll.

You guys sure know how to give it but can’t seem to take it.I know he is a a carlton troll.
But he has now admitted that he doesn't care about any side not in the top 4 , so he should now shut his mouth on us until next season begins , otherwise it proves that he actually does care.
