Desperation.

Collingwood had a down year, whilst Carlton's ladder position was inflated by their double up games against the easy beats.

An aberration, as exemplified by the 2022 and 2023 results, and as we'll see in 2025.

That's why we've beaten Carlton in basically every meaningful game we've played in recent times.
Don't think I will bother going into debate about your player rankings. Can't even have a serious conversation without you taking the piss .

No , I was questioning how a player ranked by your colleague as a 15-20 on carltons list is the equivalent of 30-35 on collingwoods given that both sides were pretty much even apart from %. It's not logical in the slightest
To be fair he probably would be we we got a lot of small forward. Jamie Elliot's, Shultz, McCreery, Bobby hill ECT he wouldn't get in above any of them, he'd be as useful as a Ben Crocker for us.
 
Good call considering Owies kicked more goals than all those players this season
Well two of them missed half season through injury, Bobby Hill admittedly had a unusually bad year and Shultz couldn't fit into the team structure for multiple reasons mostly we had zero cohesion all year. It's literally a one off year let's see if owies ever scores more than any of these guys again? Besides Elliot cause he will retire soon. When we are in full swing/inform like the previous 2 years he wouldn't make the starting team. Do you honestly believe he does if we had 2023 form and if so who would he replace and why?

You agreed with Fadge that Owies would be ranked 30-35th player on collingwoods list, and then revert back to 2023 premiership team. It's the classic fallback for most of you pie posters. Can only go off current form, but I could name a minimum of 15 players worse than Owies on Collingwoods 2024 list which would debunk any of yours, or Fadges theories on that ranking

I stopped reading at Shultz.
 
Players ranked 15 to 20 for Carlton would be 30 to 35 for Collingwood.

So to add them to Collingwood's list, it would make it 0.5% better, but by Carlton trading them out, it makes your list 7.5% worse.

Remember, they were good enough to play 47 of a possible 48 games at Carlton in 2024.

Half of those players either are, have been, or will be better players than Owies and Kennedy.

Have been:
Cox
Markov
Frampton

Will be:
Macrae
DeMattia
Allen
Jiath
Ryan
Mcinnes
Sullivan
Long
Richards
Dean

I'd keep all of them on Collingwood's list before picking up Kennedy and Owies. (Noting Richards is no longer on our list)

So you believe that if all of those players were available on the open market, they would all be selected in a draft / chased by other clubs , before Owies or Kennedy.
Maybe go have your meds for the day

Fadge there's delusion then there's this. Not a single one of those players is better than Owies or Kennedy
Get off the Ayahuasca and have a lay down.

30-35 on Collingwoods depth chart 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Only half ? Has someone hacked your account?
 
In reality Kennedy would be fringe 22 next year for both sides. Arguably ahead of some duds like Mitchell and Perryman but we'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

So far ahead of a spud like Macrae though it's not even funny.
