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

[WalshistheGOAT]

LOL.

Why ?

Because your team has 1 genuine star player. The Blues have triple that in a bad year

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Still can't believe anyone is trying to pump up Maynards tyres in here though. Bloke is made of fairy floss.

 

[beerbandit]

The why is in the post

The why is a ridiculous statement.

 

[beerbandit]

Because your team has 1 genuine star player. The Blues have triple that in a bad year

That’s according to your rankings.

 

[BEEG]

Pies improved.

Blues did not.

Injury to Cripps or Curnow and they are in trouble.

 

[Ulahoopski]

I don’t have to run the survey as it is common sense.

I think every coach would answer 2+2 is 4 - do I have to survey them to confirm this suspicion?

Even Vossy? Doubtful.

 

[Ulahoopski]

Because your team has 1 genuine star player. The Blues have triple that in a bad year

Lol.
1 team is full of premiership players. The other has three "star" players helping their side to get outscored 60 - 0 in their only final for the year.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Pies improved.

Blues did not.

Injury to Cripps or Curnow and they are in trouble.

How would the Pies go with an injury to Nicky?

 

[Robertio]

If I was given both Carlton and Collingwood's lists and told to pick my best team at round 1 2025 it'd be this:

B: Perryman Weitering Maynard
HB: Houston Moore Howe
C: J Daicos Cripps Crisp
HF: Elliot Curnow Degoey
FF: TDK McKay Hill
R: Cameron, Naicos, Walsh
I: Pendlebury, Sidebottom, kemp, McReery
Sub: Hoskin Elliot

Tried to be as unbiased as possible. This is based on who I think are the best players available for each position. Went for WHE ahead of Acres as sub because of versatility.

So many players that never played finals this year.

How'd all these washed up Pies miss finals last year?

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

That’s according to your rankings.

Who on the Pies is level with Cripps, Curnow, Weitering and Nicky?

Genuine star players

 

[Cyclops]

Saad is better than JFN, who was our chief runner in defence late last year.

Pies strength is defence, which we robbed this year to patch up the midfield (with Adams gone, JDG cand Titch injured).

At times we had Crisp and WHE playing the Saad role, Crisp is better and the hyphen as good as him.

Weitering and Saad are Carltons defence, it's not deep.

Newman play badminton?

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Hungover

 

[carlton_99]

Newman play badminton?

They have WHE at the same level as Saad as a HB...

 

[Scritchyscroony]

So many players that never played finals this year.

On both teams!

 

[Robertio]

On both teams!

There was only one team there mate, keep up.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Tdk will join brother at Geelong.

Be foolish to stay at the Blues.
There will be a bidding war for him so the Cats are gonna have to stump up some good land deals to land him.

 

[Cyclops]

Newman play badminton?

Might as well. Decent player but lets not pretend your defence is your best asset.

Weitering haha

 

[Chief]

Weitering haha

Huh? Weitering would walk into the line up at any club.

 

[adammania9]

So would Bobby Hill. He’s not on the level of Naicos Cripps and Curnow though

 

[Robertio]

For his position Weitering is every bit the level of Cripps Daicos and Curnow.

There are quite a few one time All-Australians running around
