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

[Pistol Night]

Paddy Dow was ok

Thats all his nanna tells her bowls friends too

 

[Pistol Night]

Tipping pick 70 has thrown up more stinkers than pick 3.

Wtf is ur point?

The sentence i said? Should i rephrase pick 3 having a history of good and poor players somehow to tickle Carlon's balls?

Do you expect Carlton fans to know who Austin and the team want? Very odd

We've been reliably informed all afternoon that you don't want either Levi or Finn.

I'm just taking the Carlton posters' word for it.

You do understand that when someone says something they aren't speaking for the thousands of people that support their club... right?

 

[doppleganger]

Because we have an interest in a very specific type of player at that top end. Someone like Langford or Smillie would be largely useless for us from a list fit perspective if they fell to us, despite being just as accomplished as the others in that mix.

We need a POD midfielder, not another big body inside. Pick 3 guarantees us one of the explosive, POD midfielders in the draft. Pick 5-8 does not.

Draft to get best talent, use trade and FA to fill list management gaps.

When pick 3 hits their prime years (normally give until 3rd-4th year when they have played 50 AFL games) why would you not be wanting a big powerful midfielder to take over from Cripps?

We'll have Walker by the time Cripps retires who's around 190cm, Cerra at 188, Ben Camporeale about the same.

If Elijah Hollands ends up on ball full time he's fairly big too.

A big body is not really a need for us, hence why we just gave away Kennedy for peanuts.

Just a really weird take.

Cerra isnt a big powerful mid and the others aren't even on the list.

You draft for to bring in best available talent, and then use trade and FA to adjust the list.

Would be madness for Carlton to exclude draftees based on 2025 list fit.

No it wouldn't. It would be an all time idiotic move for us to pick Smillie or Langford at pick 3 this year. We need pace and run in our midfield, not a big lumbering inside ball winner.

 

[Robertio]

No certainties mate. Pick 3 has thrown some champs and stinkers

So has pick 1

 

[Robertio]

Paddy Dow was ok

So was Chris Judd.

 

[Pistol Night]

So has pick 1

Pick 58 has produced as many Brownlow winners as pick 1. We've got this sorted this year.

 

[Pistol Night]

Easy answer to all this. Brisbane won the flag so are the benchmark. Ask their supporters who they’d least like to play out of Collingwood and Carlton next year

 

[Fadge]

So was Chris Judd.

Good thing West Coast were able to develop him into the player he was...

You guys are taking great offence when I remind you that you have access to the 4th best kid in the upcoming draft, and have gone to great lengths to say it's such an open draft that every analyst has a different top 6.

So you either think Levi is in the top 3 (which he is, as per every person analysing the 2024 Draft), and you have access to the 4th best kid in the draft, or he's outside the top 3, meaning your pick 3 will get you the 3rd best player in the draft.

So which is it?

Nobody said we didn't want Levi did we? Making up rubbish as always

You're just going round and round in circles mate, no one has said Levi isn't the best rated player in the draft, all i said was we will pick up the 3rd best live player in the draft. Fadge's world a bit foggy today?

He has become an utter moron.

 

[Fadge]

Carlton boys getting a bit prickly?

Take a chill pill, guys. It's October, and therefore the best time to be a Carlton supporter.

Subjective on who you barrack for I’d say
