Banter Who will be better in 2024? Carlton or Collingwood? Part 2

[Worm4]

Not sure if you know how finals work but you have to win a lot of games to make all those GFs

Doesn't take much effort to duck the best teams and go out in straight sets Blues-style eg 1975, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1994... [2024?]

Carlton the Straight Sets Kings

1976 was a great year but again, it's not 2024

Fadge and Corn Cob reminiscing. It's cute

 

[JustaBattler]

Because that's where the spoons in question started.

What you should be asking is, how come the number of finals appearances did not surpass the number of spoons in such a generously given timeframe?

Deflection.

Maybe you should do some reading up - since your Clubs ex President and his ugly monkey mate Demetriou were the architects ? Meanwhile the son of this scumbag left your Club because' health issues' after his dad's and now his mate ( business partner and all) Demetriou let him know the shyte was about to hit the fan..

but don't jab -ber on here in this thread - start your own thread about Essendon V Carlton on the Board and join your mate the big Y and try and stay on topic.

Fadge and Corn Cob reminiscing. It's cute

They have nothing else to talk bout as we are better so far this year, and they are talking about great chokes without mentioning 1970 the greatest choke of all time and also 1981 was a fair choke as well.

Collingwood supporters are now celebrating their Grand Final losses.

All 27 of them (all time record)

 

[Corn Cobbers]

So just discovered you can't ignore a mod... [damn]

but you can go one better - ignore yourself.

Never to be beaten. Ever.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Never to be beaten. Ever.

Yep just like Carlton's straight sets record and "missing finals after being there all year" record

Do you know what "straight sets" means?

I am starting to wonder who the real GOATcos actually is. The shit Daicos is the one that has won the Copeland trophy.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Err yes...

Your point being?

[Corn Cobbers]

 

[The Fantom]

And Grand Final wins.

And all the great wins that took them into Grand Finals (which is better than reminiscing about spoons and 11th placed finishes).

So how often do you celebrate the 1970 Grand Final? I mean, I know the committee men were opening the champagne at half time

 

[Fadge]

1976 was a great year but again, it's not 2024

What happened in 1976? (Before my time)

 

[Fadge]

Never to be beaten. Ever.

Well, you'd have to qualify for Grand Finals to get close, so you're right - your mob ain't getting near it.

Nth Melb 1975 lost the first 3 like us, they were 4th after 14 games too, like us

Strange season that one.

After round 19 Hawthorn were 2 games clear on top and Carlton were 3 games clear in 2nd spot ahead of North.

Hawthorn & Carlton then played in dead rubbers, lost form and momentum.

At the same time North had vital matches week by week and eventually thrashed Hawthorn in the GF.

Ooh, the old dead rubber challenge.

Only the very best teams experience dead rubbers, regroup and settle to take out the main prize...

 

[Cleansweep17]

Hey Fadge wasn’t it amazing watching Neale in 2023. By far the best player of the year…

Too bad you can't execute more often in the big dance, must think that's a dead rubber too

Windy night and look what's blown in
