Game Day Port vs Carlton, Round 20, 2024 @ Marvel Stadium

[Shane_Mag]

Top 4 spot still up for grabs? Sounds like we know whats gonna happen.

 

[Windy Cindy]

Carlton by 40, game over by 1/4 time

 

[Faucon Bleu]

No chance.
Carlton by close to 80
Game will be done at the 8 min mark

Think this is a joke that we will win by 80, think you guys have a very good chance here.

 

[Coobk001]

Yep.

Away against the top 4 our last win was Round 21, 2015. The Brandon Ahchee and Sam Gray breakout game......

Here's a breakdown:

2024: (0-?) Wont play Sydney or Bris away, Carlton is this week, If Freo hold their spot we play them in the last round.
2023: (0-3) Brisbane (48), Carlton (50) and Collingwood (71) - All 3 of our biggest losses, next 2 were to Adelaide.
2022: (0-3) Geelong (35), Melbourne (14 - TIO), Collingwood (6)
2021: (0-1) Brisbane (49)
2020: (0-2) Brisbane (37), Geelong (60)
2019: (0-3) Brisbane (17), Richmond (38), Collingwood (39)
2018: (0-3) West Coast (42), Collingwood (51), Hawks (3 - Tas)
2017: (0-3) Adelaide (84), GWS (31), Geelong (2)
2016: (0-2) Sydney (67), GWS (86)
2015: (1-2) Freo (7), Sydney (10), Hawks (22)

So since 2015, we are 0 W - 20 L - Averaging a Loss of 41.5 pts.

I took this another step further.

We are not only 0-20, with an average losing margin of 41.5pts, but we have:

• A percentage of 59.96% in these games
• An average score for of only 62
• Only once have we conceeded under 81,
• 12 of the 20 games we've conceded over 100.

 

[240volt]

I have the same feeling. But I like to think of it as a good feeling because I still like winning

Although Carlton's outs are no more significant than ours. They just get talked up more.

Yeah they have still got a couple of useful forwards only 97 goals between them this year.

 

[manureid]

Is this tonight? Ahh, pity I missed it.

 

[afl2004]

Yeah they have still got a couple of useful forwards only 97 goals between them this year.

Not joking, if ratugolea wasn't playing we would be a much better chance

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Yeah they have still got a couple of useful forwards only 97 goals between them this year.

Cripps, Weitering, Walsh, Saad etc

 

[PAFC66]

Think this is a joke that we will win by 80, think you guys have a very good chance here.

Yeah , nah Couldn't care less at this stage.
Take that disgrace of a child killer flag out of here you piece of shit

 

[x_les_x]

We havent got close to beating a top 8 side the whole season when the final sieran sounds except for geelong which we very almost fell over in the last quarter - what makes you think it will all of a sudden miraculously happen tonight. Yes carltons got injuries but theyve actually got depth unlike us. We’re going to get nowhere close

 

[Grave Danger]

Haven't beaten a side that's finished top 4 away from home in many years.

Can't see that changing tonight.

#sackhinkley

So "Kenny" will be rooting for Geelong to go top four this year then.

 

[growly]

They didn’t FINISH in the Top 4 that year.

Fair enough didn't realise, safe to say then if carlton lose they don't make top 4. For the record I think you guys get it done by about 20 points tonight. The Afl giving Carlton a 5 day break this time of year is stupid it will cost them the 4 points tonight and their fans will be up in arms after the game I can just see it.

 

[Duck Farmer]

Sweet Sauron, it's Charlie the White!

He's the saviour we needed after Frodo the Gray got killed in the Quadrangle of Doom.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Have we lost yet

 

[Interstater]

Yep.

Away against the top 4 our last win was Round 21, 2015. The Brandon Ah Chee and Sam Gray breakout game......

Here's a breakdown:

2024: (0-?) Won't play Sydney or Bris away, Carlton is this week, If Freo hold their spot we play them in the last round.
2023: (0-3) Brisbane (48), Carlton (50) and Collingwood (71) - All 3 of our biggest losses, next 2 were to Adelaide.
2022: (0-3) Geelong (35), Melbourne (14 - TIO), Collingwood (6)
2021: (0-1) Brisbane (49)
2020: (0-2) Brisbane (37), Geelong (60)
2019: (0-3) Brisbane (17), Richmond (38), Collingwood (39)
2018: (0-3) West Coast (42), Collingwood (51), Hawks (3 - Tas)
2017: (0-3) Adelaide (84), GWS (31), Geelong (2)
2016: (0-2) Sydney (67), GWS (86)
2015: (1-2) Freo (7), Sydney (10), Hawks (22)

So since 2015, we are 0 W - 20 L - Averaging a Loss of 41.5 pts.

The only word for that is Putrid.
Didn't realise it was so bad.

I know this may not be the popular opinion, but maybe we should look at a new coach?

 

[Windy Cindy]

I took this another step further.

We are not only 0-20, with an average losing margin of 41.5pts, but we have:

• 12 of the 20 games we've conceded over 100.

can you send this to the board?

they obviously have never seen this type of information.. cc in corn and rucci

 

[Coobk001]

What it proves to me, when you see info like that, is that Hinkley and co are pulling off the greatest con job of all time.

Those stats, aligned with many others say that we're absolutely no chance tonight. Yet people in the media and many supporters are again riding the wave after we played 1 quarter against the bottom side, believing we're a solid chance.

I'm convinced we'll lose, but I just find it staggering that this sort of effect has not been more widely noticed.

I'm with ya,

I cant imagine anyone in any sport with a similar record against top sides has had 1 extension let alone 3? shame on everyone associated with the club

We have no chance tonight and the stats just prove that.

 

[Interstater]

This game has the following vibe:

• Russell Ebert tribute game
• Brian Fairclough tribute game
• Every Showdown for the last few years
• The unlosable Bulldogs Prelim final
• That Ben Brown

Holy Toledo. I can't unsee that.

Good work Cookbook, go and get yourself a kit kat after unveiling that horse manure.

 

[PAFC66]

We havent got close to beating a top 8 side the whole season when the final sieran sounds except for geelong which we very almost fell over in the last quarter - what makes you think it will all of a sudden miraculously happen tonight. Yes carltons got injuries but theyve actually got depth unlike us. We’re going to get nowhere close

We are 3-2 against top 8 sides as shit as we're going

 

[PAFC66]

Have we lost yet

Not long now

 

[raptalia]

Haven't beaten a side that's finished top 4 away from home in many years.

Can't see that changing tonight.

#sackhinkley

That is amazing, in our 13 in a row last year we didn't beat one of the top 4 away from home?

Yes, looked it up and you are right. Best we could do in that run was Saints (6th) and Swans (8th). Although that is the final standings, not sure where they were when we played them during the minor round.

Last time we met Carlton at Marvel in Round 18 last year we were thumped by 50 points. Dan Houston, who some people are prepared to trade, had 41 touches.

Help yourself to a second Kit Kat Cookbook.

 

[Alyx]

 

[RossFC]

Don't expect us to come close, but if we somehow win, that would really help towards getting a top 8 spot.
