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

[Arr0w]

I would say about 95%. Except for arrow. That dude is around 80 years old. Maybe worm? He seems old school

Yeap, I'm old

Alive for 8 GF appearances, 5 flags.
Remember 6 grand finals and 3 flags.

Pies out of the finals race if the lose Friday?

 

[Cleansweep17]

by those rules we would’ve automatically been in the 2018 GF. So it’s not a reach to get the 4peat mate.

You can only play by the rules of the day....

If we were playing by the historical top 4 rules, Richmond would have been eliminated from finals after finishing 3rd and losing their first final in 2020...

 

[Juddernaut08]

this thread is in danger of fizzling out due to the Pies' injury list. Mihocek is underrated and will hurt.

Old farts club. You were probably part of the unofficial selection committee that used to stand under the sir robert heatley stand

Interesting up there back in the day

We would be leading an entire game by 10 goals and people were still melting

Absolutely. Strange characters indeed. Had to walk thru them to get to the tab to work out my probabilities, and all you would hear is whinging by that crew

It’s a must win game for both.

 

[Cleansweep17]

Pies out of the finals race if the lose Friday?

Yes, they are also out of the race even if they win.

They were out when they lost to Essendon last week.

Maybe, but still enough experience to turn the tide of consistency

Pies are absolutely dead in the water if they lose on Friday. The best part is unlike in 2021, this time their list is well and truly cooked going forward. Pendles and Sidebottom found a few more years of good footy but the end is nigh at Pieland!

Will bottom out harder than Richmond as they have close to 0 tradable assets outside of Nicky.

Awesome,

Will look forward to our next 5 years of bottom 4 mediocrity, in the same way we were all told in 2021.

And you know what that means?

2025 Top 4
2026 Flag.

With what players? Half your list is about to retire

 

[Arr0w]

I thought the Pies were heading for a 3peat

 

[Aphrodite]

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

And you haven’t won one in 29 years.

Funny that I can pull a number from my backside too.

Yes yes we'll be hearing this a lot over the next few weeks, as well as this shit about twenty years, wooden spoons and 1995 etc.

You may as well use up all the material you have because in 2024 Carlton are flag contenders and Collingwood are not.

Injuries, out of form as well as teams having worked you out. You'll be doing well just to finish in the top ten nevermind the top eight!

The only three peat the Pies do are ones of the losing variety 1979, 1980 and 1981.

Unfortunately it’s hard to argue with, BUT you never know

We don’t worry about 3 peats, we roll in 4 peats, back to back to back to back.

Geez you’d hope the Coventrys and Colliers got free drink cards and free cigars back in the day!

Our boys have the talent, i just hope they have it between the ears now! Success in sport is about having the mental ability and capacity to get the job done as much as the physical imo.

I guess time will tell on this comment, given the team that were second on the ladder and second favourites for the premiership at the same stage of 2023 didn't end up contending for the flag...
