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

[JustaBattler]

He's been super so far this year.

I was going to back him for the Brownlow Medal, but it seems the betting agencies only list the top 100 players from 2023 as betting options.

strolling down the pitch and smacking you for a six - again Fudgey- you make it too easy because you set yourself up with hyperbolic trolls backed up by nuffery.

Finally some resemblance of equalisation taking place . They should send them to the cattery as well like every other side has had to do over the past few years

If we’re talking equalisation they’d better start sending everyone else to the Gabba more often to get back to parity with us.

 

[JustaBattler]

Currently top 5 player in the league

I think he is definitely a top5 CHF and adding relief ruck to his resume.

 

[Gw2_James]

I don't see us losing a game until some time in 2029 when Tasmania come good.

Yep correct.

Only 2 games I'm worried about is next week because we haven't won at Adelaide oval before, but we've beat Freo recently, so i give that a 50/50.

Gws is a danger game too and will be a teaser to the grand final. They beat us last year but it was a dead rubber game. It's in Melbourne though so we probably win 60/40

The other games not even stressed about, particularly against Collingwood, might aswell send our vfl squad out in all honesty.

That's what happens when your club is a Powerhouse

Average attendances 2024

Collingwood 50900
Carlton 54900

I'm sure we are going ok as crap club

 

[Arr0w]

Yep, the winning ratio in 2021 is similar to that of Carlton's for the past two decades.

In fact, we beat Adelaide in Adelaide that year, so the winning ratio is probably better.

Not sure why you need to include any other side, I just asked for the Pies record

Do you have that?

Another small data set.

Let's review at the end of the season, where the result will be the same as it always is...

Clearly 2021 was an aberration for Collingwood, in the same way that 2023 was an aberration for Carlton...

 

[Arr0w]

Collingwood's interstate record since the start of 2022:
Played 14
Won 9
Lost 5

Lost to GWS (flag favourites) in 2024
Lost twice to Brisbane in 2023 (Grand Finalists) and 2022 (Preliminary Finalists)
Lost twice to Sydney in 2022 (Grand Finalists)

I wish we travelled more often...

I will do it for you fadge

2021 - 2 and 4

11 and 9 over 3 years

Powerhouse

 

[Worm4]

Why? And when?

Why not ? Collingwood should not be immune from playing in Geelong

It's okay fadge, you're good enough, you're good enough

51 games is a small data set.
Let's review after 10 years

Powerhouse

So a positive win/loss record interstate over a 3 year period, which includes the worst season in our history?

When is the last 3 year period that Carlton had a positive win/loss record?

Actually, that's probably too hard.

What is the BEST interstate win/loss record Carlton have had since the turn of the century?

 

[Arr0w]

Back to 2024 shall we

If the Pies can't spank tge Hawks by 15 goals, they still have serious concerns

 

[Fadge]

Why not ? Collingwood should not be immune from playing in Geelong

Oh.

So that's the substance behind the 'It's coming, believe me...'

Powerhouse Victorian clubs don't play in Geelong nowadays, and haven't for a long time.

Here is the thing Fadge, you are the only one boasting, yet your record isn't elite by any stretch

Only the best in the competition.

The Fadge deflections, it's okay you're good enough

Give me a side with a better interstate record than Collingwood?

Go.

I think he is definitely a top5 CHF and adding relief ruck to his resume.

It's the "relief ruck" which has taken him to the next level imo, he's never out of the game now

7 tackles v Richmond was a career high I think and a good sign, would not be much fun being tackled by McKay

And instead you get away games at the MCG against a Marvel tenant...

We couldn't even spank WCE in a flag year, I'll take a narrow win

A win is a win no matter the margin - especially at this point in the year.

Dunno I am in two minds about it- risking a match winning forward in CBB against errant knees etc....hmmm
