[Arr0w]

14 more Grand Finals.
Many more finals series played and finals won.
Many more games won.
Much fewer wooden spoons.
Superior head to head record.
Many more supporters locally, country wide, world wide.
More members.
Much bigger crowds.
Not currently in a 25 season Grand Final drought.

'Laughable'

All that waffle just to say this...

8 flags to 3 in the last 60 odd years

More members - Is that a statistical fact or an imaginary fact ?

I think I got him a bit worked up ? Superior h2h - they just past us last couple of years he's been waiting to use that one for 50 years I reckon.

I don't need to 'imagine' facts.

Most recent finalised, published membership numbers:

I dont think Collingwood can get much lower. Nearly all home games and still cant make the 8.

Eagles would be clear number 1 if we built a bigger stadium. They wont accept any new members.

You'd fit in well with the Carlton folk...

'If'...

So it's an imaginary fact as you don't have the numbers available to prove your point.
Carlton have 105,035 as at 30/7. Collingwood ?

'If'...

We see eye to eye in the society threads. To be fair, Carlton arent much better

 

[JustaBattler]

'Probably'
'If'

Carlton are paying $4.50 to make the top 4 for a reason.

I think you need to borrow my abacus.

what odds are the bookies paying for Collingwood to play finals?

'If'...

'If'.... the Pies won more games this year they would be playing finals and contending for a flag.

There may be one criteria that Carlton beat Collingwood in - Most Bandwagoners.

(Though you'd still be behind Richmond).

 

[Robertio]

'If'...

Carlton has over 103,000 members and don't play nearly every game at the MCG, you have to do better than this mate.

 

[Arr0w]

Here's an interesting stat...

2024, Pies will miss the 8

Poor deflectors

 

[RCAB]

Does anyone see the irony about Fly whinging about the non 50 late in the game ?

Did he really?

 

[JustaBattler]

Carlton has over 103,000 members and don't play nearly every game at the MCG, you have to do better than this mate.

I don't think he understands what a real powerhouse Club is mate.

105k

Explain it to me - what's your criteria and who are they?

I've defined mine on multiple occasions.

Not, Collingwood

 

[Worm4]

Not, Collingwood

Let's see how much of a powerhouse club they really are next weekend. Over 100k members, home game against last year's grand finalists. Should get 60k minimum if 50% of members decide to turn up

 

[Fadge]

Collingwood, then daylight, as per standard.

 

[South of the Yarra]

8 flags to 3 in the last 60 odd years

2-0 in the last 14. Even better

 

[Fadge]

Isn't it interesting how they always go quiet when I challenge them to share their criteria for determining whether a club is a Powerhouse, and provide their list of Powerhouse clubs based on said criteria?

Interesting, though far from surprising.
