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

[manicpie]

Richmond are the only side to beat Sydney, this is why making predictions so early is just silly. All I know is that the premiership is wide open this year and anything can happen between now and finals

Is this a Who will be better in 2024? Carlton or Geelong? thread

For me, I would prefer it be that atm. It's a long season though and anything is possible

Quiet.

Geelong was brought up by Collingwood and Carlton supporters last night. So obviously the discussion expands to the teams around them from time to time.

Okay, but if you remain off topic you are merely trying to derail the thread. Not very ethical.

'Easy draw'

I should have realised for a team that has finished in the bottom few for 25 years there is no such thing as an easy draw, my bad

 

[carlton_99]

Fair enough. We'd need a couple of wins against contenders before top 4 is really back in my mind. It's bizarre to be sitting 3rd after being so bad.

With the top 4 so weak outside of Sydney, we might see another year where a team makes the grand final from 5th-8th.

It's only Round 12 you don't have to be playing your best at this point in the season. Just have to bank wins especially with 2-11 being so even.

Just take it a week at a time mate.

We were talking about David Parkin on the Sweet FA board earlier. Three flags as Carlton coach and two flags with Hawthorn as player and coach.

Parko has seen more flags than what Pies supporters have, in the last sixty five going on sixty six years.

So to all those Carlton supporting kids and young adults who have no concept of seeing your team contend for a premiership, let alone win one, there is hope for you....

Do you feel different having only seen 3 instead of 8?

A very lame retort that is mate. You're starting to lose your mojo Fudgey.

 

[jannissary]

collingwood has travelled 4 times in the first 12 rounds, including OR & gather round. carlton’s travelled 5 times… who’s had the easier draw?

Broken record.

For a premiership team they got looked after very well.

 

[Worm4]

Fadge , are you still taking the 5th amendment in regards to collingwood form over the past couple of weeks ?

 

[carlton_99]

Pretty sure we've travelled 4 times (Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide x 2)

So assuming Freo beat Melbourne, Collingwood now not in the top 8 at the half way mark of the season.
Question for pies fans -
Is this where you expected your side to be at this point of the season ?

Previous to all our injuries and even after losing the first 3 games, I still expected us to be higher on the ladder. Even an idiot like me can't expect us to be any higher on the ladder atm. How about we wait till the end of the season before anyone makes any judgement about anything. As I said, Richmond is the only side to beat Sydney, when you can explain that is when you'll have an answer to your own question

counting the two adelaide ones as travelling

First month was always going to be tough

Would have that 9-3 was strong, 8-4 acceptable

6-2-4 is fine though, still right in it

Yes, I would say so

i counted 5 but i'm also bad at mathematics, so

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Top spot is probably out of reach, the next dozen spots are up for grabs
