Banter Who will be better in 2024? Carlton or Collingwood?

[Chronz]

Lid is firmly on for Carlton fans. It's just it looks like we're playing with house money this year such is the Pies putrid form

You guys should be a bit humble but confident in going far in September. Going hard this early always ends in pain.

 

[Arr0w]

Carlton supporters with the lid off in March. Now, if you had already won the Premiership in 2024 then by all means post away. But just imagine the salt if you don't snag it. Can't wait.

This thread isn't about who wins a flag, just who finishes higher

Most of us had both sides making the 8, well, apart from one poster who hasn't accurately predicted Carlton's finishing position in the last 3 years

Let's be honest though, it is just a p1sstake thread for some laughs

Yeah it's a banter fred. Don't mind it and hope both our teams can make it into finals. Imagine a Pies/Blues prelim or granny. Would be insane.

Clearly this thread is about who will be better in 2024 between the 2 sides. No one has talked about premierships in here. At the moment Carlton are leading in this race and that's why we are chirpy. If you wish to discuss premierships, maybe go to another thread coz that's not what this one is about

Don't win anything coming 2nd to 18th. If we both don't win it then we both fail.

Based on what your fellow Pies supporters have said in here I don't think that will be a very popular opinion

 

[Mister Dog]

This Carlton side reminds me of the 2012 team.
Equal top after round 5.
Premiership favourites after round 3.

Will they fall off a cliff like they did in 2012 and miss the 8?

If you’re Carlton, a Premiership has to now be the expectation, which is an odd situation given their past few seasons.

Does their playing group genuinely believe they can win a flag though?

They’re 2023 finals series was a bit of a throw of the dice with no expectations beforehand. They got through to a prelim with a fair bit of luck combined with some genuine fight and grit.

I believe internally they’ll soon start to feel the external premiership pressure start to conflict with their genuine uncertainty of how far they can really go.

How they handle it is going to be intriguing.

Yep, that is verging on that WestCoast named Carlton fan's rather not make a GF stance, absolute drivel.

 

[OnceWeWereKings]

Think we should let the thread die until Collingwood can at least demonstrate a competitive level commensurate with Carlton’s at some stage this year.
Just not in the same ballpark.
It’s embarrassing for Pies supporters now.
Thread has about as much relevance than if someone started a “Who will be better in 2024? Carlton or North Melbourne”
Was fun for a while, it’s just cruelty now. Sadistic even.

 

[Fadge]

If you are referring to my deliberate use of decimals within the abacus system, well yes I'm aware .
You do understand the concept of 85/15% in mathematical probability and estimated odds in betting yeah ?

Hey Worm4 - Carlton's current premiership odds are $8.

What probability does that correlate to, if (as you say) a 15% chance of winning a game of football correlates to odds of $2.85?

Hey fadge, you had the % on the collingwood v carlton game as 85% in collingwoods favour.

I think you're being a bit generous giving 50/50 to Carlton for some of those games too.

I'd go:
Freo (in Adelaide) > 30/70
Adel (Marv) > 60/40
GWS (Marv) > 15/85
Geel (MCG) > 30/70
Coll (MCG) > 15/85
Melb (MCG) > 25/75
Syd (SCG) > 10/90

Correct me if I am wrong, but this was your quote so I can only go off what you said. I'm not interested in Carltons premiership quote from a bookie. I am however extremely interested in what you have dished up here

So you're doubling down on saying that if a sporting team is a 15% chance of winning anything (a game, a championship), their odds would be $2.85?

Where is Pistol Night?

Where is Pistol Night?

got suspended ages ago. Most likely reported by a carlton supporter.

Hopefully back soon.

In a 2 horse race, those odds would be around the mark.
Got nothing to do with an 18 team competition. Its to do with 1 game in particular where you offered up the percentages. It's not that hard to comprehend surely.
So according to your abacus, and your 15/85 % probability, please frame what your market suggests just for the lols

I've given you three chances...

Didn’t Hawks destroy them late last season?

I’m thinking a repeat. Maginness will make Daicos look weak once again.

We are playing like pus at the moment

 

[Crankyhawk]

Yeah, and they try hard to take the piss out of us, right?

Colliwobbles:

• 32 years (completed)
• 22 seasons played finals
• 8 Grand finals
• 1 wooden spoon

The Blues:

• 28 years (and counting - only 4 to catch up)
• 11 seasons played finals
• 1 Grand Final
• 5 wooden spoons

The terminology is “blueshakes “ let’s be consistent

Or most likely one of your own

 

[kreuze_missile]

Who's playing on Curnow and Mckay in rd 8?

Won't be Darcy Moore.. hasn't been sighted within 20m of an opponent all year.

 

[kreuze_missile]

If Nathan Murphy isn't back in rd 8 who the hell goes on Curnow and Mckay?

Nathan Murphy?

May as well give us the 4pts now.

 

[demondavey]

GWS are better than both, as are Melbourne if they kick straight.

 

[Drought Break]

how about "Bluewobbles"". What a crappy 28 years.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Preferring 0 premierships to 2 is exactly where I thought Carlton fans would be mentally tbh

They want more no1 draft picks.
