I might put up Patty Cripps comparative figures 3 seasons in for a laugh.Yep poor Daics, won a flag and coaches MVP but only 37 Brownlow votes in his 3rd year, is there any hope for him

I didn’t see it. I do recall Patty’s 19 possession, 7 kicks, zero goals 2 vote performance against the Bombers. The umps really nailed that one.

Carlton Posters:
We were better than Collingwood in 2024 because we finished a few percentage points higher and got humiliated in the final. Doesn't matter that we got a softer draw and lost both home and away games to the Pies.
Also Carlton posters:
We were better than Geelong in 2024 because we beat them by 11 goals in the home and away game. It doesn't matter that Geelong finished much higher on the ladder and made a prelim. We beat them so we're better.
Bunch of children!

Well they finished a lot higher than Collingwood did on the ladder last time I checked
Not to mention they conveniently forget to mention they were only 1 from 2 in their home and away matches against Geelong, but I'm sure that was just an honest oversight.
Do Carlton supporters want to post any more own goals?
This has been fun.
So far it's been confirmed that if you lose any of Cripps, Weitering, Curnow or De Koning for an extended period of time, you're bottom 4 level, and also the fact you have allocated a large percentage of your salary cap to a small number of players, you are hamstrung from bringing in the additional talent you need to elevate from finals contenders to premiership contenders.

If we just keep talking to them the own goals, clangers and self admissions will flow.
Worm is no doubt conjuring up some doozy fake news as we speak.

Yeah that'd be why no Collingwood posters are suggesting Pies were better than Geelong in 2024.
Unlike Carlton they beat us, won more games, lost less, finished top 4 and won a final.
See how that works?
I just popped in for a weather report from Mexico

What the hell are you gabbling on about old mate, i haven't seen one Carlton poster say we are better than Geelong, you better learn how this works.
You don't count the year you were born, but include when you were 2
Surely need to be 7or8 to really understand and have great memories of a flag.
You are lucky to have experienced 5, which is fantastic. Good luck to you
Pity the poor Carlton fan who is 10 years younger, the millennials or gen Y, the kids of those lucky Bagger Boomers who were born up to 1960.
The Gen Y Carlton fans have only seen the Baggers play in 4 GFs (2 wins and 2 losses) but suffered through 5 wooden spoons seasons and 18 seasons where they finished worse than 10th (aka being shite).
And Baggers born in AFL era (1990 or later) have perhaps a memory of losing the GF in 99, and vivid memories of 5 spoons. Poor Buggers.

Think there are others here too claiming to have vivid memories of flags as an under 7yo, shocking dishonestyYou don't count the year you were born, but include when you were 2

Have you asked a mod to fix the spelling mistake?
Why would I be concerned about supporters younger than me ? I'll give you a hint - I'm not concernedYou don't count the year you were born, but include when you were 2

Said "under 7" don't you read too good?
First GF I remember I was 6, then 7 for the first one I followed and cared about
Happy for you and Wormy though, having "vivid flag memories" as 2 year olds

I remember going to pre school at the age of 2

Ah yes, because everyone needs to be inline with you and others when it comes to memory
