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

[CarmenSandiego]

Um....

For a team to contend for and win a premiership, form in the back end of the season absolutely means more.

What a strange question.

Leading into the following season?

Why did Collingwood go from 1st to 0-2 and miss the finals?

 

[Worm4]

There wouldn't be a dozen players on Carlton's list that I'd take before him.

Proves my point, you have WHE ranked around 10-12 on carltons list. Go take some meds, please, for your own sanity

 

[Worm4]

Ummm.
We brought in Perryman and Houston.
You brought in pick 3 and lost your F1 and F2.
Spot the difference Worm?

Collingwood brought in 1.5 million per year of salary cap pressure and Carlton did not. That's the difference

 

[Worm4]

The truth hurts.

I fully understand.

You don't understand. The meds haven't kicked in yet

 

[Fadge]

Maybe if you understood football, you'd understand why I'd rank him as such.

 

[Fadge]

Oh, of course.

Who needs salary cap pressure if it means it makes you a better team and you risk having the pressure of being a premiership contender?

Who wants that 'pressure'?

Still waiting to see your legit top 6 for Collingwood, after which our list falls away.

Based on your responses since making that comment, I'm thinking it was nothing more than an 'I know you are, what am I' response that you'd use in grade 2...

Your list substantially drops away after Daicos.

We rely on our top 10 but it’s better than relying on a top 1.

The ire at the comment was nothing to do with the word tribalism. Read the comment again and read the explanation. It was an insulting and shameful comnent and I will never respond to that poster again.

Right but I felt like other people jumping on the comment were probably assuming the tribalism bit.

 

[Worm4]

Tell me which teams other than West Coast, North and Richmond that Carlton finished the 2024 season better than based on late form?

If I recall at one point in June, Collingwood were 3rd and Carlton were 10th. From that point, Carlton finished better than collingwood

 

[Robertio]

Scritchy, you don't understand.

Carlton don't need to improve their list to jump from a non-contender to a contender.

As they're the only team in the competition who gets injuries, all they need is a good run with injuries and a premiership dynasty awaits!

Who said we don't need to improve our list?

 

[Robertio]

Oh, of course.

Who needs salary cap pressure if it means it makes you a better team and you risk having the pressure of being a premiership contender?

Who wants that 'pressure'?

Pies are living from season to season and it will end badly, you are already down in Mexico.

 

[Worm4]

So just another baseless comment then?

Also love how you have jokingly listed Cox - a player who has kicked as many goals in single quarters of knock-out finals as the great Charlie Curnow has kicked in his entire career in finals, and Hoskin-Elliott - one of the most reliable and versatile players on Collingwood's list - a player that any supporter of any team who understands what it takes to regularly contend for premierships would take in a heartbeat.

You keep referring to cirnow in finals how many goals did rob flower kick in finals ? Must have been shit player that bloke, in comparison to cox

Oh yeah. Silly me. Thanks for explaining it to me Fadge.
Makes perfect sense when you put it like that. We should also factor in that Moir and Durdin both project to be like Eddie Betts. I guess they'll be fine.

Do you guys find you need to talk things through with each other often to reach an outcome?

[WalshistheGOAT]

I don't recall 10% of the 'waffling on non stop' about Nick Daicos before he was drafted that you guys are doing about Cody Walker.

We prefer you wait until a kid has proven himself at the level, as Daicos has, before we wax lyrical about him.

Lmao

Fadge has wonderful football knowledge. I like to tap his expertise whenever possible. He's good with numbers too.

Carlton passing on Houston was a cap issue, dressed up as a preference to keep picks.
It’s the only logical explanation given he’s a gun and wanted to play for Carlton.

Every teams list would significantly drop away substantially if they had a super star like ND.

Easy draw was the reason.

Yep, that's it.

That's your statement not ours, you're starting to sound like a schoolkid.

We can see that you're a disciple mate.

Couldn't beat the Bombers that's the real reason.
