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

[carlton_99]

Carlton didn't want Houston, because they already have Saad and Newman.

LMAO.

1. Houston wanted Carlton.
2. Carlton had the picks to get the trade done.
3. Trade didn't get done.

Hmmm I wonder why that was...

I'm not saying it wasn't fact, I'm pointing out the stupidity of the decision.

LMAO.

That's two can you see anymore halfbacks on our list?

Yes we should have totally invested another 2 first rounders and 8-900k of Salary Cap for a half back flanker when we've already got Newman, Saad, Williams and Docherty and another half dozen kids/role players who play there too...

Astute recruiting it would have been...

In your opinion.

The funniest part of this situation is if we did that trade they would have been saying the above exactly.

 

[Worm4]

The racist bullying of Mexicans by Carlton supporters needs to stop.

Isn't it time for your siesta ?
Half your list have them every afternoon I'd imagine

 

[Worm4]

You also need to stop with the fat shaming.
Schultz is just big boned.

Ironic that Collingwood supporters have become so Woke.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Pies supporters throwing their toys out of the cot lol.

Misogynist!

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Ironic that Collingwood supporters have become so Woke.

Punching down on the working class now I see.
Disgusting!

[Scritchyscroony]

Owies played 23 of 24 games only because their star small forwards Motlop and Durdin were injured.

LMAO.

Dont forget Kennedy finishing top 10 in the bnf but he's just fringe

 

[carlton_99]

When you are one of three who played every game yes you give yourself a good chance of finishing higher in the BnF

Yep... Your own club consistently selected him and rated him the 10th best player for the club this year....yet you maintain he was a fringe depth player now he's left

Not a fringe depth player a fringe best 22 player. Kennedy wanted more opportunities as a midfielder and he was never going to get that with us. Our midfield needs a POD with some pace who can spread from the stoppage not another inside contested midfielder.

 

[Arr0w]

I'm not saying it wasn't fact, I'm pointing out the stupidity of the decision.

And if we paid anything close to what the Pies did, it would have been overs and a bad list management decision, right?

 

[Fadge]

That's two can you see anymore halfbacks on our list?

At a level anywhere near Houston?

No.

It's like us saying 'We wouldn't take Curnow if he was available because we've already got Mihocek, McStay and Membrey'.

Do you understand how ridiculous that sounds?

 

[Fadge]

I thought Williams was now your answer in the forward line?

Newman is 32.

Saad is falling off a cliff.

Docherty is 30 something coming off a third knee reconstruction.

But no, Houston wouldn't be an important player for the next 5 years for Carlton, and particularly the next couple of years whilst your top 6 are in their absolute prime...

Go back to the commentary at the time.

We as Collingwood supporters know only too well that the key to success is to build the best list you possibly can, every single year.

 

[JustaBattler]

Give these Collingwooders a break fellas- they are showing signs of heatstroke in their postings - clearly forgot to wear their sombreros whilst settling into Mexico and dreaming about 'contending'.

Where the hell did i say at Houstons level? Geez you make a lot of shit up when you got no answer.

Who is that going to be?

They're all over the place mate, makey makey uppy uppy.

Imagine paying big bucks to a player who doesn't even want to be playing at yru Club - similar to paying big bucks for players - playing at opther Clubs ...

 

[Fadge]

Where the hell did i say at Houstons level? Geez you make a lot of shit up when you got no answer.

But that would be the only reason you wouldn't bring in Houston.

Having Curnow and McKay is a fair reason not to go shopping for a Larkey or JUH, but having the four players you mention is no reason not to bring in Houston.
