Banter Who will be Better in 2025, Collingwood or Carlton? Part 4

[Fadge]

Carlton supporters will be talking about 2024 to their Grandkids in 50 years time.

'There was actually a time when we did finish above Collingwood, and qualified for finals when they didn't!

But don't look at the head to head results against Collingwood in that season, and please don't have a close look at who our double up games were against. Oh, and whatever you do, don't look at the quarter by quarter scores in our Elimination Final that year...'

 

[South of the Yarra]

Likewise, footy has been around longer than this century

Yes and it has been around more than the 60-80- years you keep banging on about.

 

[Arr0w]

Great so in 2024 Collingwood have won a premiership more recently than Carlton, have beaten Carlton more recently and we see Carltons Premiership drought extend. Thanks for admitting we are better.

Or, Pies are still in mexico, currently

So frigging what?

You used the term 'current year', so I responded in kind with the term 'current century'.

What relevance does your statement have?

 

[South of the Yarra]

And I will be in 2 weeks so we can catch up. exciting times.

 

[Fadge]

The past is the past and the future is yet to be written - you are hammering the 'list hasn't improved' line which has been refuted on multiple occassions

Where has it been refuted?

I specifically requested Carlton supporters to refute it, with reference to their ins and outs.

And I'm still waiting.

Your 2 head to head wins over Carlton didn't get you into the finals though, not good enogh.

All boils down to 16 flags a piece but with our 6 VFA flags to Pies 1 makes us the greatest club.

We don't have to give you anything, you'll make up your own mind anyway.

 

[Fadge]

We don't have to give you anything, you'll make up your own mind anyway.

No, you don't have to give me anything.

But the Carlton poster stated my assertion HAD been refuted. My question therefore was when and by who?

 

[South of the Yarra]

With Longmire quitting this morning at least the Blues have a backup coach for when they sack Voss.

 

[Robertio]

No, you don't have to give me anything.

Weren't you comparing our new recruits to the out going players? You should be comparing what we already have and the two players we've yet to bring in.

I did yesterday - you must have skipped it because it doesn't line up with your narrative....

Yeah, let's use flags from a different competition as a tie breaker, and ignore:
Runner up finishes
Finals wins
Head to head records
Wooden spoon count

Nah 22 flags to 17 and all won in the top competition of the day.

 

[Fadge]

Huh?

I should be comparing what Carlton 'already have', plus two additional unknown players, when assessing whether or not their list has objectively improved in the off season?

WTF?

 

[Arr0w]

So frigging what?

You used the term 'current year', so I responded in kind with the term 'current century'.

What relevance does your statement have?

You really struggle with deflections

Current year, century, league

 

[South of the Yarra]

Now the Geelong supporters have rolled up. Great

I want a full taco report!

WTF?

Well you shouldn't be comparing new draftees that's for sure, think our depth players like Silvagni, Lord, Moir, Bins and the Irish boys.

 

[Fadge]

Oh, of course.

Forgive me if I stopped reading at Silvagni.

Because Carlton are the only club that had injuries in 2024, and have got young, unproven players on their list...

 

[Robertio]

Oh, of course.

That's why none of us will give you any answers mate you're a dickhead.

 

[carlton_99]

Forgive me if I stopped reading at Silvagni.

We are all shocked

 

[Fadge]

That's why none of us will give you any answers mate you're a dickhead.

Careful, CArr0w will call you out for playing the poster...

The post won't last but why ask us anything if you know you're not going to listen? Get yourself a thread where there is only you in it where everyone will agree with you.
