Banter Who will be better in 2025, Carlton or Collingwood? Part 3

[Robertio]

Good luck for the rest of the season. As much as I hate to say it, I think Carlton are a chance next week. Just a feeling

We have to play every final interstate if we want to make the GF, so will be a herculean effort when we are there

 

[manicpie]

We have to play every final interstate if we want to make the GF, so will be a herculean effort when we are there

I was reffering to this week only. I can't see anyone winning by going interstate for 3 weeks

Not if Geelong beat Port.

 

[Robertio]

Not if Geelong beat Port.

50-50 that one.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

i know you guys have been blasted by injuries as well, but thats not enough. you need a game style that wins games, not saves games and thats your issue and has been for a while. Maybe Voss will wake up but hes had a crack so far and hasnt wonken up yet.

Clueless take

 

[Reg Grundy35]

The logic of Carlton supporters. Where a team who is literally incapable of beating their rival is now considered superior because of their results against other teams

Erm, that's how ladder positions work.

If you were better, you would've made the 8 at a bare minimum.

If only you had beaten Essendon... speaking of logic, does that make them the better side than you because you did not beat them this year?

 

[Madblue]

The logic of some people who are incapable of knowing how a ladder works. Any excuse to deflect

 

[HeathySure]

Clueless take

lol keep the delusions going. it will get you nowhere

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

lol keep the delusions going. it will get you nowhere

Our game style was working perfectly fine when we were healthy and in form.

We had the best returns for scores from transition and defending scores from transition in the league as of round 18 or so.

Is that the sign of bad system or a bad game plan?

Perhaps the Blues just have a unique set of talent that means our game plan looks a bit different to the likes of Sydney, GWS etc who have a very different list profile to us?

 

[South of the Yarra]

Is it true that Carlton have only won 3 games since the end of June and that is against the 3 bottom sides? If that is correct, that is insane.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Is it true that Carlton have only won 3 games since the end of June and that is against the 3 bottom sides? If that is correct, that is insane.

Is it true that Collingwood missed finals after their fans claimed last year was the beginning of a dynasty?

If that is correct, that is insane.

 

[Madblue]

Is it true that Carlton have only won 3 games since the end of June and that is against the 3 bottom sides? If that is correct, that is insane.

Is it true that the pathetic Pies missed the finals ?? That is correct from their insane supporters

 

[South of the Yarra]

The end of June, all of July, all of August and now into September and the Blues have only beaten the bottom 3 sides in that time. I have never seen anything like this. Thank God for their soft draw. WOW.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Is it true that Carlton have only won 3 games since the end of June and that is against the 3 bottom sides? If that is correct, that is insane.

Round 24. Bloosers BLOOSE to StKilda
Round 23, Carlton Beat the mighty West Coast
Round 22, Bloosers get SMASHED by Hawthorn and score 38 points for the game
Round 21 McGovern gets the blue-shakes and kicks it out on the full after the siren. Bloosers BLOOSE to Collingwood.
Round 20. Bloosers BLOOSE to Port.
Round 19. The bloosers beat mighty Norf by 3 goals.
Round 18. Bloosers BLOOSE to the dogs.
Round 17. Bloosers BLOOSE to GWS.

So much BLOOSERING

I can really see why all the Carlton posters are so up and about. That formline just screams "Premiers" doesn't it!

All that BLOOSERING and one chubby German small forward managed to drag Collingwood to depths even the Blues couldnt reach this year

If it wasn't for that porky German we'd've been top 4.

Anyway, would've been better for Carlton to miss finals and get a better draft hand. Getting spanked in finals is no man's land.

I'll remember to tell the Lions fans that when Charlie Curnow kicks 10 on No Jacket Harris while he's wearing a specialized ankle brace to him together

has kicked in his entire career in finals. I can't believe these things I am hearing.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Charlie would need at least 15 free kicks for that to happen.
So it's realistic I guess.

, an on baller has kicked more goals in Grand Finals than Curnow has in his entire finals career. I am stunned by the things I am hearing tonight.

Think he's also been arrested more times

 

[South of the Yarra]

Think he's also been arrested more times

Certainly not more times than several members of the Carlton Team of the Century.

 

[South of the Yarra]

Think he's also been arrested more times

Charlie certainly would not be able to be arrested in September. They wouldn't be able to find him.

If you were better, you would've made the 8 at a bare minimum.

If only you had beaten Essendon... speaking of logic, does that make them the better side than you because you did not beat them this year?

Pies have won 5 of the last six. convince me the blues are better than them . Please dont use ladder possie in a lopsided draw. Thats the only possible reason we've been given. Blues got an insanely soft draw for a preliminary finalist last year. AFL did their best but they still weren't up to it. 5 out of 6 - there's not a sport in the world where the loser of 5 out of 6 could claim superiority.
