Banter Who will be better in 2025? Carlton or Collingwood Part 5

[RCAB]

He's got as much idea about coaching as Tex Walker does about quantum physics

IMO, if Vossy's he's holding cards, they’re in a quantum superposition, simultaneously blank and irrelevant. And he might say the system is both working and not working until we check the ladder.

At this point the only observable state is: Carlton underperforming.

Might borrow some of Fadge bitcoin billionaire wealth and put 5k on Blues at $51 to win the flag.. real juicy odds for a team with 2 Coleman medalists, a dual Brownlow medalist and multiple number 1 draft picks

The moment I entered this thread.

Yes I'm sure we're really rueing missing out on Nik Cox and Jye Amiss!

Fair point too, some reason most of the AFL community can't comprehend the idea of a team wanting a known talent vs some plodder playing in the VFL within 5 years.

 

[RCAB]

I think he's still clinging onto the back half of 2023 waiting for that to reappear..
The whole club and supporter base is as well to be honest. The delusions about the state of their playing list are pretty extreme though.

The penny drops slowly down at Princess Park it seems.

It certainly appears Voss is. Many still think Walsh is good. Does it just carry on because recruiters in a draft selected him first?

Walsh had 31 disposals last night and had no impact on the game. Sidebottom has 23 touches and has way more impact.
If Carlton were smart they'd trade Walsh out at the end of the year while he still has currency.

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

Btw, you’ve been gifted the easiest draw in history this year, imagine not making finals with that gift!

Yeah we might have messed up the rebuild and Vossy probably will be getting the arse soon enough.

Still though three flags in sixty five years. We'll ask a Geelong or Hawthorn supporter for tips on how to be an actual modern-day footy power ok!

You do that. They'll also tell you you're shithouse

I know it's only April, but I'm prepared to go out on a limb and call it.

I'm now like Homer Simpson after the barbeque got ruined. It's still good it's still good!

At least wait until the end of September mate.

 

[Robertio]

You havent won a flag for 30 years, you’ve got more spoons in that time than Jamie Oliver, and the last team you beat was 9 months ago and it’s a team with a Fitzroy level skill base in west coast. But yup, Collingwood are shit .

Btw, you’ve been gifted the easiest draw in history this year, imagine not making finals with that gift!

I don't have to imagine it mate.

It's just a little airborne, it's still good

 

[Robertio]

Before I was Fadge, a known Hawthorn hater and critic.. Now I'm Damo, Hawthorn's arch-nemesis... You're scrambling, just like your plodder team has for the good part of 12 months.

You're not half as good as Fadge old mate

 

[Robertio]

Well, personally I think the thread title has been answered emphatically. I would consider renaiming the thread to "Who will be better in 2025? Carlton or West Coast or Richmond Part 1" which is a much more relevant topic. And YES, I think Norf will be better than all three!

Sounds good.

I'd trade one of the Coleman medilists.

The only team dumb enough to trade for a VFL plodder on such big money is Carlton.

Guess they are stuck with him.

 

[PerthBoy86]

Is there a point where Pies fans just feel sorry for Blues fans and ease off a little? Maybe after another 30 year drought?

Never particularly liked Carlton but I just pity them and their supporters. They're almost in St Kilda territory. Part of me wants them to have success due to that but I can never really hope a big Vic club has more success.

Do you feel sorry for Freo

It's just a little airborne, it's still good

So a flash in the pan prelim final appearance, was quite possibly the crowning moment of a decade long rebuild.

A potential spoon incoming with our draft picks traded away to Hawthorn. I suppose you may as well find the humour in it in a dark/macabre sort of way.

The other option is to just huddle up in a corner and cry!

It is what it is. The day people across the board start treating us as a charity/sympathy case, is the day we may as well fold the club up imo.

That day has arrived.

I don't they have it in for us big time as well for some reason!

Pies fan pretending he supports the Hawks. How sad is that?
