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

[PieLebo87]

Mainly here so we can enjoy the LOLs afterwards at the end of 2023, but also an interesting discussion point.

I’m in genuine two minds and can’t call it, but who do you see finishing higher in 2023?

Who is positioned better from a list/team perspective?

Let the games begin…

Carlton are on track for a +191 free kick differential across the season. By far the biggest on record

I think you're being a tad conservative

 

[YeoShuey]

I’m just curious. How many times have Collingwood beaten Carlton in a Grand Final?

LOL, you've been putrid for most of the last 28 years, and that's all you've got to hang your hat on.

 

[Arr0w]

I’m just curious. How long has it been since Collingwood have beaten Carlton in a Grand Final?

Hmmm

I wonder why you refuse to answer the very simple question. Is it because the number is undesirable?

well, its once. who cares?

Just think, if Carlton continue to avoid playing in Grand Finals for another 87 years in the same way as they have for all of this century, you'll be able to brag about it being 200 years since Collingwood have beaten Carlton in a Grand Final!

Won't that be a buzz for you?

 

[YeoShuey]

well, its once. who cares?

And how many times have Collingwood lost to Carlton in a Grand Final?

We’re just waiting to reach 32 years, then we truly know we’re s**t.

 

[Doc1763]

And how many times have Collingwood lost to Carlton in a Grand Final?

four, I think. who cares.

how many grand finals have Carlton won since 1995?

how many spoons have Carlton won this century?

Ladder or last game, which do you prefer?

last 28 years

Yeah, Carlton on the back of wins against a struggling Brisbane and two teams who are favoured to finished in the bottom 4, and a win against Collingwood in a dead rubber last year after Collingwood had locked away their top 2 spot by round 18 (though I thought we weren't allowed to discuss 2023?), have got it all over the reigning premiers, despite not having genuinely contended for a flag for nearing a quarter of a century.

You really got us there!

You’ve won one game against a struggling Brisbane.

 

[Fadge]

You’ve won one game against a struggling Brisbane.

That's correct. We're not the one's kidding ourselves about where we're at in 2024?

But I guess it is March, one of the 8 or 9 months of the year where Carlton supporters do their best work (excluding July, August and September).

 

[YeoShuey]

You’ve won one game against a struggling Brisbane.

To summarise, their argument is basically

Carlton are no good because they only beat Brisbane, North and Richmond

Yet they counter argue by saying that

Collingwood are so good because they beat Brisbane.

Who needs logic in this thread?

Who’s kidding themselves? It’s 3-0 and 1-3. Facts.

Dead rubber for Brisbane. They only fire up against decent opposition, not some Owen mob who are south bound on ladder

We keep turning up, where have you been?

In the time since you last played in a Grand Final (1999) we’ve played in six.
