A quarter as dominant as the second from Carlton and could only register +10 on the scoreboard.
I reckon much of last night was the blues keeping the tigers in the game.
I always say if more behinds are registered than goals, then it is somewhat a poor performance.
Curnow missed 4 absolute...
OP - "Nick Daicos could be the greatest player of all time"
People argue against it.
OP - "Why are you saying Nick Daicos isn't one of the best players currently in the competition?"
Carlton are not being predicted to finish top 4 because of how good or exciting they can be.
They are being predicted to finish top 4 only because they are expected to.
And because of that, Carlton will likely struggle to finish top 4 (perhaps even make finals). This club can't handle...
Every huge club here would do so.
This isn't saying Carlton won't have a percentage of bandwagoners come along should they ever get to a position for a flag.
But right now, the membership base (which is significant as it involves support through money) is not built on the back of any success...
Even if we went by this fool's ever-changing goal posts for what constitutes a power house club:
Collingwood wouldn't be in it.
No ' turn of the century' garbage is going to change that.
No dynasties as of now. Only 3 flags in 60+ years (2 of them contentious to some degree by the way)...
Collingwood are a powerhouse club. But Carlton are as well. Only the dumbest morons would spew otherwise.
Powerhouse is not remotely about 'turn of the century' success as the same two or three fools here beat themselves over.
It is the overall history. It's the supporter loyalty. It's the...
And Carlton weren't?
Isn't every team almost banged up towards the end of the season?
Didn't the blues' biggest play of the year involve two players who couldn't lift their arms above their head and another who was left almost dazed and short of breath by his opponent minutes before?
And...
You act as if that is the only scenario that can take place.
Possibilities are plenty in footy. History won't always have all the answers because new history is always created.
Nah. Not right. Just narcissistic and prejudiced.
Will there ever be a time where you will give them a chance?
Nope. People can read you too easily.
"I hate Carlton so they'll be crap".
So not 10 out of 10?
Kinda proves there's no such thing as a certainty.
Besides, that was not the copy-paste I mentioned. Don't know what you were reading. Are you pies supporters here visually impaired or something?
Don't be silly.
A potentially contentious Collingwood premiership means their supporters are gifted powers. Especially those with that cute little cup featured in their profile here.
Powers of wisdom, omniscience and foresight.
We are to solely thank and bow down to them for their team...
You're right. It is something I can't control.
But it too seems like something you can't change either. Like it's written in your DNA. The same copy and pasted words, only with a brand new shiny date label. Something you merely take ownership of and have used since you first joined this forum...
See there are problems here:
You are implying Carlton are "decent". We know you never think that.
Proof is in how you predict their downfall every single year. If we were to finish 18th again, improvement doesn't exist in your eyes. If we were certainly on the rise, you'll have us certainly on...
Thanks for proving my point about past performances and future performances. You're finally catching on.
The next step now is to try looking further beyond your own nose. I'm sure you'll figure this one out sometime soon.
How is that any different to your fellow pies fans barking on about how they are a shoe-in for back to back flags next year after a 13-year drought between your last two and a 20-year and 32-year droughts before that?
I could have easily pointed this out. But unlike you, I know that past...
So we are going with "they = Andy Maher". You're touting Andy Maher as the official spokesperson of the entire blues supporter base. I can assure you nobody sees him this way
And heaven forbid him showing any kind of passion after the club working hard to achieve a well-deserved breaking of a...
You mean outlining the good footy Charlie Curnow is capable of instead of taking what COULD be 3 of many finals games in his career, pointing out his underwhelming performances and spewing up crap like "he's a fraud", "piss-weak" and "worst Coleman medalist".
I know which side I'll stick with...
More simple-minded opposition fans who shift so much of their focus towards the "quality of the opponent" and completely disregard the very thing staring them in the face: the quality of the individual performance.
This same opponent who had a 40-point head start and saw folks similar to you...
Even more fascinating is that being how many react to almost everything you share around these parts.
Suppose that is a personal achievement of some form you can smile about. 👍🏻
