And Collingwood are no good at finals.
There's merit in this, yet somehow we've won more finals than any other club, played in more finals, won the equal most flags, and played in about a third of all grand finals. 16 more than the next closest, which is the blose and the bombouts. Source afl tables.

Yep you're right, we just do it by weight of numbers, we just bust damn walls, and when we win our flags we usually don't have the best list in it, just the best team, 90 and 23 are testament to that, we win em by weight of numbers.

It will continue, as we've done throughout the history of the comp, that's never swayed, usually contending and if not, setting for our next contention. Not gonna change now. Sorry not sorry.
 
We were up 71 to 32 from that point forward so technically we won more of the game.

And given Brisbane won the flag, and we beat them in more of the elimiation final, its not a stretch to consider Carlton the best team in the league.

I've done further investigations into Richmond and they only have 13 flags. What? This cannot possibly be right, the way they bang on around here you'd think they would have at least 30. :$

TBF, they did enter the comp 8 years later, none the less we're still better than every other club over their respective times in the course of the competition, including the tigs.

Can't see a Grand Finals choked column... How peculiar...
Yeah, it's probably beyond you to perform a simple calculation of Grand Finals played - Grand Finals won, given in the simple world of Carlton supporters it is a 'choke' if you make a Grand Final and not win the flag.

Lucky Carlton haven't had the opportunity to 'choke' in a quarter of a century, isn't it?

Not sure where they get this idea that they're good in GFs anyway, certainly not in the AFL era

Lot of bickering, let's compromise.

Pies will concede Carlton has a better list on paper. We promise we won't change thus even when the Pies beat them twice in the H&A.

Pies will also express support for the Blues making the 8 (so the Pies can make it 3 or even 4-0 for the year).

In return the Blues concede Curnow is a curly headed small game specialist, and when the Pies win the 2025 premiership they all get a Magpie tattooed on their arses.

We're reaching out the hand of friendship here.

Carlton better in 2024, better over the last 80 years
