Banter FOOTY Banter! - Who will be better in 2026? Carlton or Collingwood Part 9

[Robertio]

What else do you expect when Carlton continue to repeat the same performances?

March 5th. LOLOL.

Is this the earliest a team's season has been written off, after the standard hope and expectation over the off season?

Lol don't forget the Pies have an away game this weekend as well.

 

[Crankyhawk]

How can one team be so consistently crap.

It's actually impressive.

I'm holding off as I think it is more Sydney are good
Now if this happens against Richmond...

 

[Crankyhawk]

I actually felt sorry for blues fans getting baited by the yearly Ben Ainsworth kicking bags in preseason games trick before he disappears in the regular season.

They would have never watched a Gold Coast preseason game so weren’t to know.

he kicked 2
that's a bag by carlton current standards

 

[Corn Cobbers]

I'm holding off as I think it is more Sydney are good
Now if this happens against Richmond...

Sydney may be good

But not "12 goals in one quarter" good

It was a disgraceful, pea-hearted capitulation by the Blues, they'll be lucky to win one game

 

[Elixuh]

Are Carlton running their SEN membership day following the Richmond clash next week?

 

[Crankyhawk]

I mean, as far as 84 point turnarounds in under 2 quarters go, it wasn't the worst I've seen.

yes but you were on the right end of the turnaround (2021 GF)

Yep.

When you're a Powerhouse you get minnow clubs like St. Kilda and Carlton begging to play their home games against you at the 'G.

That's a load of crap and you know it.

I don't know why you bothered.

Bloke is just a bit testy after coming to the realisation that 2026 will be yet another wasted year, after entering the season full of hope and expectation.

 

[Elixuh]

It's already season over.

Our priorities are the Hinkley/Butters package deal and Cody Walker.

Bring on 2027.

The blues entire focus should be to be in a position to beat the pies ladder position in 2027, or 2028, maybe 2032 if we’re being realistic.

For all the stats that Jagga racks up, he's not very damaging. Metres gained also very low.

 

[HeathySure]

You cant bag a kid after one game. He will be very good, Needs to get out of doing circle work in a game though, thats coaching. They need to get rid of Vossy very quickly so he doesnt get ruined like Walsh

I usually write Blues players off as soon as they get drafted, but even I think this a ridiculous comment about Jagga after his first AFL game, which was a very promising performance.

I'm only going by how Carlton fans were rating him after the practice matches.

If he was a lock then as the return of the messiah then he's fair game.

2020 but agree

You reckon Butters will want to come to Carlton?

I mean, sometimes we all need to places we don't particularly want to, like the tip on a hot day, but of all the options available to him surely they would be low on the list.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Impossible to tell if the players play for Voss or not.

When a side is so consistently competitive for 2-3 quarters week in week out, but terrible for 1-1.5 quarters most weeks, is that players playing to their maximum but not being good enough, or players calling it quits when it gets hard because they don't back their coach and his gameplan?

 

[beema limapep]

Do we want Carlton to win their next 3 against Richmond, Melbourne and North for their supporters to get their hopes up again and be claiming the second half of last night was an aberration, or not?

I'm torn.

Instant vs deferred gratification.

Look, its a conumdrum.......I feel as though either way, non-Carlton supporters will enjoy the ride.

It’s all of the above. Voss isn’t a terrible coach but he’s also not a top end coach, I mean he got them to a prelim a few years ago.

I think the main issue has been massive overrating of the list and treating C graders like they’re A graders.

 

[beema limapep]

Andy Maher missing from his usual show on SEN this arvo with Gazey, not feeling well

Butters is lucky that as a player he gets a choice.

As a supporter I am stuck here forever.

I must admit, I actually thought they were a sneaky chance to slip into the 8 this year, I liked their moves off-season

But their midfield looks cooked over 4 quarters, badly need some speed and agility through there
