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

[Fadge]

Held together by bandages but he just had one of the best seasons of all time by an individual

Did he?

Really?

Yet he couldn't win the Players MVP or Coaches Award, and played a single final and failed to receive a coaches vote?

One of those was rigged by an bias coach so doesn't really count

Take your anti Carlton behaviour where the sun don't shine, amigo.

 

[Worm4]

They really are a one man band and no other team relies on one player to the extent that the blues rely on their captain. As it is he’s being held together by bandages.

Refer to collingwoods brownlow team tally for 2024, and then tell me again, how no team relies on an individual more than Carlton does.

Because we didn't lose for 9 weeks with 15 injuries and didn't carry on like the world was ending. Brissy has ACLs everywhere and won the flag. Stop with the victim mentality of injuries when you're going shithouse. Its sad. Injuries are guna hurt more when you're depth is terrible







This will end well.

Do the same on Collingwood threads then. **** me the hypocrisy of you fogs is breathtaking

Just reference what I consider an incorrect opinion. Don't get all gungho over it. Fact is , Nick goes down , Collingwood are stuffed and most people know it. Cripps goes down and everyone thinks we become Richmond like. It's hilarious how people are talking up injuries to star players - sad actually.

It's a Carlton thread. We know the main 3 amigos and their anti Carlton agenda just love flooding these threads with the same BS . It's all in the banter thread perhaps keep your opinions over there and keep this one a little bit serious for a change

But Carlton did.

How did Carlton go without Tom De Koning for the last few games of the season?

A player who many would rate as Carlton's 6th best player.

Why don't you answer the question as opposed to playing the poster.

You said Cripps had one of the best individual seasons ever, and I refuted it.

Back up your claim - where does Cripps' 2024 sit amongst the all timers?

Because I didn't even have him as the best player in 2024 - that honor goes to Heeney, with Cripps on the second line with Neale (who jumped from 5th to equal 2nd courtesy of his finals efforts) - let alone one of the greatest seasons of all time...

 

[Fadge]

Essendon couldn't beat Carlton though mate, now you're just talking rubbish.

They wouldn't have needed to, in the same way as Carlton finished above Collingwood, despite losing two games to them, courtesy of the North/Richmond double ups.

 

[Fadge]

It is the Main Board, right?

I like the way they honestly think the only reason they're not consistently contending for flags is because of their unprecedented injury misfortunes each year.

Because whilst they truly believe that, they'll continue to deliver the same results as they have in recent times.

 

[Worm4]

You've expressed the same opinion on every single thread relating to my club. Everyone knows your opinion. Do you get off or something expressing the same stuff over and over and over again ? Glad you get your little giggles and your amigo mates still sitting in Mexico doing a circle jerk over Carlton in an elimination final . It's quite boring.

If you don't want to hear from neutrals commenting about Carlton, in a thread specific to Carlton on the Main Board, I suggest you stick to the Carlton Board.

Don't you love it?

You are so far from a neutral poster it's laughable.

If you're going to try turn every thread into a d*** measuring contest between Pies and Blues just stick to the banter thread mate.

Most Carlton posters are happy to converse and disagree with other posters from other clubs with some level of respect, just not with you as you're a troll who belongs on the bay.

 

[HeathySure]

I hope the blues supporters were all over Cattoggio in race 8 at Flemington today. Its about the best thing thats happened to them in 25 years

 

[JustaBattler]

not only do you have the world's most accurate abacus but now you seem to have acquired teh ability to speak for the 'many' - aren't they lucky!

Collingwood are a very well coached side that does not rely on individuals to carry the team. Collingwood won three of their last four games played without Nick Daicos, including a final.

 

[beerbandit]

You’re literally making my argument for me.

I’ve not made any claim regarding the quality of the player we’ll pick at 3.

Because as you said, he could be great, he could be crap. Only time will tell.

Meanwhile, Beer Bandit over here is certain pick 3 won’t have an immediate impact.

And can’t elaborate on as to why.

Well…we know why. It’s because Carlton.



So let me get this straight.

You’re certain pick 3 won’t do much in year 1, and your entire reasoning is because some draft picks are good and some are bad.

Meanwhile you still seem to think I’m claiming whoever we pick at 3 will make an immediate impact. Despite, of course, me not saying anything to that effect.

Yeah, maybe it’s time to sit this one out. You seem a bit all over the shop.

What are you on about? I think it’s time for you to sit it out my friend.

It’s an opinion thread.

I thought as a “mod” you’d understand this, you seem to be getting so worked up about my opinion that it’s becoming hilarious.

I won’t back down from saying that pick 3 won’t make you better next year, I’ll even use Fadge probability calculator if I have too.
Pick 3 will most likely prove beneficial for the future but to think that an unknown pick will make you better next year is ludicrous. It’s the AFL, these blokes are seasoned footballers, it’s not like it used to be.

You’ve got a bee in your bonnet, you came at me, I didn’t come at you.

Pull your head in, gee whiz you wouldn’t have too many mates if you jump down there throats like this for having an opinion.

Chill out bud.

P.S - Still waiting on the evidence that a pick 3 immediately makes that side better the following year.

Take pick 3 out, you’ve gone backwards with your trading.

Clubs flying past.

You'll be waiting a long while, because I never said it would. And I've clarified that a number of times yet somehow, hilariously, it still doesn't seem to have sunk in.

Meanwhile, your stance seems to be that there's no chance it will. And your evidence is...because Carlton. And because some draft picks don't work out.

Nice.

Opinions are great but when you talk in absolutes with no real basis for doing so, don't get upset when you're called out for it.

You are just arguing for the sake of arguing buddy.

Get over it.

More then 65% agree with me.

Go cry in the corner and don’t spoil the thread by getting your back up at peoples opinions.

And don’t go slagging me off to other posters.

Do better mate.

 

[Jeremias]

More then 65% agree with me.

Lol, what?

The poll question is not asking whether pick 3 will have an immediate impact.

Comprehension failure, or simply being obtuse for the sake of it?

Go cry in the corner and don’t spoil the thread by getting your back up at peoples opinions.

I'm not 'getting my back up' about anything. You are free to hold any opinion you want.

I'm simply asking you to expand on something. And you're clearly not able to do it, and that's OK too. Everyone has their limits.

If you want to continue on thinking that Daicos and Reid are the only two players in recent seasons to have had an immediate impact at AFL level, and that is what you've said, then all power to you.

You're horribly wrong, but being right isn't for everyone I guess. Especially those not willing or able to look at things objectively.
