Meltdown Carlton and Collingwood - who finishes higher in 2024?

[Saveloy Rockstar]

If a Pies player had won it I wonder whether it would be dismissed like that...

It would merely be the icing on our premiership cake

Your cake:

 

[Chief]

Im curious - why would it be football suicide to join Carlton ? West Coast and North yeah perhaps but why would you put Carlton in that category ?

His need to troll

Or maybe this...

The wheel turns my friend.
Was a time when collingwood headed the list of premiership droughts.
These lists don't last forever

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

The question was why is going to CarLOLton 'football suicide'

The answers is because they've been a career killer for a lot of players over the last 20-odd years, including the #1 draft picks they tanked for

At a first glance, I thought Wikipedia had the asterisk against Carlton's 1995 flag.

That would have been quite funny...

Who knows how long the droughts will last for.

There's one thing that is certain - it's harder to win a flag now than it ever has been...

Wouldn't matter if Carlton won it next year.
Flogs always come up with an excuse to put an asterisk next to it
Take your pick -
Apparently tanking in 2004
A Bradbury
Umpiring issues
Vic bias
Free kick curnow
The AFL admin wanted Carlton to win it
Tribunal victories
Good kicking / oppo bad kicking
You name it , there is always be flogs out there telling us exactly why they won

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

You left out getting busted for the biggest, ongoing, systemic salary cap breaches in the history of the league

I'm surprised this thread is still going. It should be changed to 2024 because we all know how this one ended.

The same way it ended in 2022 and...

2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006

Sir Scott Pendlebury has played 18 seasons for Collingwood, and finished above Carlton 17 times.

Do we really need a 2024 thread with the same Bagger fans hyping their team of individuals up again?

No that was Essendon.

We know. We’re putting up with all that pathetic s**t right now

Hence our 5 spoons thanks to the AFL for giving the biggest penalties ever known to mankind.
I mean , essendon can pump up their players with whatever drugs they want , get busted , and still get to participate in the draft following with minimal , and i do mean minimal penalties. It actually beggars belief to be fair .

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

TBF you totally deserved it

 

[the avoca drover]

We know. We’re putting up with all that pathetic s**t right now

You get used to it after 3.

Please.

The Carlton penalties were handed down after you already claimed the 2002 spoon.

Carlton was a rabble before finally being punished for cheating.

Long may it continue.

Tomorrow marks 2 weeks of Collingwood as the reigning premiers of the AFL.

A timely reminder for all of Carlton’s cheating ways in 1995 with that tainted flag, and an awesome shirt -

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

Wow. Carltank

What ******* failures

 

[Footy Is The Win]

Is anybody really sold on them?

I think they kind of played above themselves last year, got energized for 5 minutes 'cause they made finals, then reality set in and they fell on their arse.

I can't see them making finals again this year after what Brisbane did to them. So embarrassing.

I hope I am wrong, would love to play them in a final.

Do they play the eagles and north twice each? If not, they don't make the 8 and no more Colemans

Oooo second Carlton fred in as many days from a Poos supporter. Must be getting nervous

 

[Coach_Required]

Been training the house down according to David King.

Must mean they will miss the 8, not sure how their feral supporters would take that if it happens.

 

[Tandy]

The pointless thread king has returned.

Pffft. You're safe.

Pies won't be playing that pathetic excuse for a football club in a final.
