Banter Carlton is better in 2024. Who will be better in 2025? Carlton or Collingwood? Part 3

[Irish BlueBagger]

In your opinion, where would Carlton have finished if they were not "injury ravaged" this season? I.e how many spots did it cost the Blues? Genuinely interested in your opinion.

A couple of more positions higher than Collingwood.

So is the imaginary cliff you've been banging on about for years

You are right on that cliffs edge mate

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Be a top 5 player in your team, are you in his ear ?

We would have had him out there well before round 23

But keep plugging away with guys like Jack Martin, Cowan and Ollie Hollands etc

All those 3 would walk into your best 22

Before next year's thread is started any OP should be very specific about what the rules are - and make it in very very simple language that everyone can understand - even Fudgey.

Now that we know that Pendelbury /Sidebottom and even the big COX will be playing on - and they will all be getting plenty of off season rest time starting (cough) pretty soon...AND they will be getting an easier draw - should be pretty easy for the wobblers - next year - no excuses wobblers.

'Better' is relatively clear, though it does appear it needs to be spelt out in small, simple words to appease the lowest common denominator that is the Carlton supporter base...

Confident we will be better just like we have been this year

 

[Fadge]

Of course you're confident.

Reality hasn't hit yet.

Again, look at the ladder, it doesnt lie

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Very impressive, from 2nd to 9th in record time

 

[Fadge]

Again, look at the ladder, it doesnt lie

The 2025 ladder has already been finalised?

Because that's what was being referred to.

Comprehension. Is important.

 

[Fadge]

Very impressive, from 2nd to 9th in record time

Over two decades of building and rebuilding, to peak at 5th for a season.

Oh well.

 

[Madblue]

Very impressive, from 2nd to 9th in record time

Almost as bad as 1st to 10th

Well its finalised that we will finish above you at least, which isnt hard

 

[Fadge]

Almost as bad as 1st to 10th

One scenario included a 'real' Premiership, whilst the other scenario included a 'June' premiership.

But of course the drop from 1st to 10th was 'worse'.

Oh my.

 

[Fadge]

In 2025?

Oh my.

100 % worse

 

[Madblue]

In 2025?

Are you stupid ? This year idiot

 

[Madblue]

Anyway gotta head out, thanks for the laughs, its just too easy making fools of you blokes....again

 

[Fadge]

Are you stupid ? This year idiot

Oh.

Because the discussion was around making the parameters clear for NEXT YEAR'S THREAD.

But of course we should have known you were referring to THIS YEAR....

 

[Fadge]

Oh no, now he's gone 'All Arr0w' on us....

 

[Robertio]

Very impressive, from 2nd to 9th in record time

Oh look where the Pies are.

 

[Robertio]

Over two decades of building and rebuilding, to peak at 5th for a season.

Oh well.

Are you trolling or just plain stupid? We finished 5th then won 2 finals to peak at 3rd, tell me I'm wrong.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Oh no, now he's gone 'All Arr0w' on us....

Frightening similarities in their posting styles

 

[carlton_99]

So if neither team make finals, Collingwood would be considered the better team as a result of their superior head to head record?

Not going around in circles again - H2H has never been a consideration for me.

Show me a 2023 ladder that has Carlton 3rd, to show me you're right.

All I can find is this:
