[Scritchyscroony]

Walsh has burnt out, like Jaidyn Stephenson

He's looking very much like the usual no.1 draft pick selected by Carlton...Got a lot of the Bruce Squibs about him.

His first 3 years were pretty good, dropped right off since then, just a receiver now

86% of his contested marks in those first 3 years

Still Carlton to the question of topic. Always Carlton.

Might as well change the question to who is the best team in the league, and the answer will be the same.

 

[Arr0w]

What about:
1. Over the past 3 years?
2. Over the past decade?
3. Since the turn of the century?
4. Since the competition began in 1897?

Flags!

Seen 8, how many, living Pie supporters have seen that many

Glorious

86% of his kicks are mongrel helicopter fingerbreakers too.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Would Walsh be in the top 100 players in the competition going into 2025?

What do you think Fudge? Does young Walshy make the cut?

 

[Fadge]

There it is, as confirmed several times a day by Carlton supporters in this thread, Pies are the best, most prolific side historically

Those statistics are Bradmanesque.

 

[Robertio]

Ah, no.

You've declared it.

The ladder is the ultimate ruler, then finals position after finals.

And Collingwood is the competition leader by far in all of those metrics, over the history of the game.

Unless you want to keep tying yourself in knots.

Struggling here mate, Flags determine who the best are

It was 95%+

Get it right!

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Struggling here mate, Flags determine who the best are

So you weren't better than us in 2024 because you didn't win the flag? Ok

Oh, it seems someone has flip-flopped.

I've already answered that question.

Keep up.

We were better because we finished higher but the Lions were the best, educating Pie supporters is not something i didn't sign up for but I'll keep doing it.

So who was the best out of Carlton and Collingwood sir?

No you ambiguously said he might be or might not be... Is he or isn't he Fadge?

My prediction - this ends up another 'Harry McKay isn't in the top 100 players in the league'

Head to head the Pies were but not by much.

 

[Fadge]

Head to head the Pies were but not by much.

Oh.

So we're now basing who has been the best team historically on head to head results?

That's fine by Collingwood supporters, as that is yet another metric that works for us...

Funny how what you read comes out different when you type, happens a lot.

Poor fadge seems shy given the history of failed predictions

 

[Arr0w]

Good to see Pie supporters conceding that Carlton were the better side in 2024 and since WWII

What's the next topic, if not 2025?

86% of his kicks are mongrel helicopter fingerbreakers too.

So were Kernahans, but they were damn effective mongrel helicopter fingerbreakers

Rare case of a player whose kicking got worse over time. In the 80's he was pretty straight, by the end you'd want Earl taking the shots.

The difference with Kernahan and Walsh is that Kernahan's were going through the big sticks, whilst a midfielder (Walsh) needs to be delivering lace out to his forwards...
