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

[Worm4]

Congrats on your 7th win, you're still below us

We get to celebrate just a little bit more this year so far. That is , of course, unless you sicko's celebrate draws

Still sitting behind us and that's 2 games we didn't lose. We would take a draw every day of the week over a loss. I reckon you would also, unless you like losing more than a draw

 

[Arr0w]

Interesting, Blues more wins, Pies less losses, fun though

Collingwood last year would have won those 2 draws. Little cracks starting to appear perhaps ?

 

[Robertio]

Nope the draw was effectively a win. Had Collingwood lost, Carlton would be above Carlton.

Still might happen, still 13 games to go.

Checks the ladder and smiles.

Checks the scoreboard and smiles.

Collinwoods side last year didn't have 5 players under 10 games playing. It's not the best argument. I would say Collingwoods side last year would've smashed the dockers. I would wait till the end of the year before trying to make sense of the season so far. If your argument is Collinwoods team last year compared to what we have atm, it's not a very good one

Yes Rob I smiled at the scoreboard too.

Can’t believe these dummies gave us Lachie Cowan for a packet of peanuts.

Talking about the same lot that traded a first rounder for Schultz

 

[mcgrath_truther]

look, i'll say it.

i don't think collingwood could beat gold coast at the MCG*, it was a stunningly brave performance today by carlton

gold coast has played 17 games at this ground since they started as a club *
**gold coast has won 4 of those 17 games, and last won in 2021 vs collingwood *
***they have not played more than one game at the MCG since 2016

What if I told you the game was at Marvel.

yes i heard people complaining on the radio about the roof being closed, but it’s more about how little gc play at the mcg

 

[Aphrodite]

Sorry where are Carlton on the ladder again ?

 

[CarmenSandiego]

havent lost in 8 weeks

Yet still on the same amount of points…

We’ve genuinely played rubbish most of the year and we’re on same amount of points as Collingwood, Geelong & (likely) GWS… all considered flag contenders.

Our tough run of the fixture is almost over too.

Could be an interesting 2nd half of the year.

Pies supporters quick to write off Carlton if they had lost today. Blues are playing an average brand of footy at the moment . Our last 10 or games last year were way better than what we are currently seeing right now. I'm confident they will get better after the bye and make a good run at the top 4.

Carlton are playing rubbish/average because they are rubbish/average.

I guess there are always teams that have to make the battle for the bottom part of the top 8 interesting.

They seem to be worried about our draws, which tells me they are worried about us full stop. As they should

So who is better in 2024 so far ?

They're just ecstatic to be within striking distance of us.

Didn't see the Carlton game today, but in the presser Vossy stated he was going to follow up with Laura and the Umpiring fraternity to get clarity.

Good on him for calling it out - what specifically was he referring to?

Not sure specifically, but we had 2 frees for the match with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

Can't say I recall any absolute howlers that changed the course of the game though.

Form has been so bad Carlton supporters are just happy to win a game - against anyone. Just a bunch of battlers so far.

Well it probably says more about how bad the pies must be going if they only got over the line against us in the last minute of the game.

Reigning Premiers are just starting to build into the season. If you didn't get us then, you'll never get us.
