Title: 50 reasons why Collingwood is better than Carlton.
Post by: Cruiseon on April 07, 2010, 08:41:21 AM
I would like Collingwood supporters to list in order (starting with a  number) the reasons why our club is so much better than the cheating, silver spoon, morally bankrupt mob that reside at Visy, Plumbing, Optus, blue M&M Park.

I'm sure other supporters will join in, every comment is just confirmation of their secret lust of the black & white.

May I make a start.

1. - Colling are a better club than Carlton beacuse we didnt recruit Mick McGuane, Mick Martin and Corey McKernan about five years after they played their best football.

Ok this is my only legit reason to hate Carlton. and none of you Carlton or non-Carlton supporters can knock this one. Not by a long shot.

10. The only reason I could possibly hate Carlton is because so many Pies supporters hold a grudge against them for reasons that happened before they were even born. So YES I despise Carlton for the fact they are able to make 99% of Pies hate you.!

Sorry but I stand by this. Most of you only hate Carlton because you are hence my topic 'Running with the pack'

PS. Could it be I make Pies supporters hate one of their fellow barrackers?

Criuseon I asked for your own opinion not something that runs with the pack of 100 years. That is like saying you hate aborigine just because they were here before us.

MissPies, I don't hate anyone or anybody except Phil Collins and the Carlton Football club. Maybe John Howard as well if I was pushed.

I'm possibly a bit older than you so the late 70's as a young kid and the early 80's did some long term damage. But rivarly can date back more than the last 10 years and be relevant.

Not sure I like the aboriginal comparison much but I think I know what you were trying to get at.

MP, Q was already mentioned so I'll say number 26.

26. Collingwood is better than Carlton because they have cooler and funnier names. Brown Steele Ball (got to put them together ;D), Sidebottom, Goldsack, Wood and Dick verses O'helphim, Waite and Mclean.
No contest ;D

and you call us bogans.

- Carlton are better because we don't have supporters like this, people who's lives are the football team they support, sad really.

- Carlton 16 Premierships, Collingwood 15.

- In the last 50 years, Collingwood have won two premierships, Carlton have won 8.  Collingwood were a powerhouse side in 20's when players were war vets who played cricket and wanted to keep fit.

- Carlton are better because we are not looked down upon and hated.

- Carlton are better because we haven't lost 27 Grand Finals, we are not chokers.

There's 5 reasons why Carlton is better, at least my reasons were real.

Carlton do have supporters like this, every team does. Collingwood have more just because we have more supporters across the board :)

Carlton 3 Spoons, Collingwood 2 :) Collingwood more wins than any other team. Yes, you have more premierships, but perhaps not for long.

Carlton have won 7 in last 50 years. Should be ashamed trying to count 1995 as a win. If it was Collingwood cheating, I wouldn't count it.

The Pies were a Powerhouse in the 1920s. Just about the toughest time this country has had to do. They were a symbol of the working class spoken in the same breath as Bradman and Pharlap. Whereas Carlton were silver spoon boys. The 20s were a time when players would play with injuries just so that they could get their match-payments to feed there families, yeah, that's so much worse than "general soreness" attitude of today.

Carlton are hated, and every non-Carlton supporter LOVED those 3 spoons you won recently.

And I fail to see the logic that the fact that Collingwood have almost lost more Grand Finals (25, not 27) than Carlton have been in (29) as evidence that you're greater, lol. Yes, we choked sometimes. But you can't choke unless you were the better team ;)

Post by: Junktimer on January 05, 2011, 10:07:34 PM
I was happy with the three spoons recently, we got three guns for it.

1979 spoon earnt you shower all.  As did 99, where you picked up Josie Fraser and Danny Roach (ROFL) with your picks 1 and 7, Richmond esque.

1906, 1907, 1908, 1914, 1915, 1938, 1945, 1947, 1968, 1970, 1972, 1979, 1981, 1982, 1987, 1995.  We won in 95, and how you construe it means squat.

Carlton may be disliked, but are not looked on with shear hatred, (apart from Collingwood and Essendon), see here http://www.fanfooty.com.au/forum/index.php/topic,23302.msg279585.html#msg279585 (http://www.fanfooty.com.au/forum/index.php/topic,23302.msg279585.html#msg279585)

Collingwood is hated by all.

Collingwood's 25 Grand Final losses are a sign of failure, Malcolm Blight once said:

Losing a Grand Final is like dancing with your sister.

So claim them if you please.

I love that even the most one eyed supporters can't even rebut to the fact that you have won 2 premierships in the last 50 years!

At least we made it to the dance :) 25 losses is BAD. Don't you worry, well aware of that. Striving to be better and to make up for it. Just saying, claiming that 40 top 2 finishes makes a team crap, is well, simply ludicrous :)

But...

Ends your argument. That is why Collingwood are better than Carlton. We don't brag about coming last.

Carlton fans were happy to come last. My how you've fallen.

how somebody feels about their team's placing for the year doesn't reflect the club.  cmon ossie.

I know many who weren't happy with the spoons, thats just me.

Carlton 16, Collingwood 15.  THAT ends the argument.

Carlton 16? Why would you want to brag about your Premiership drought? Strange these Carlton supporters. Over a decade without even one tiny finals win, in a comp where 50% make the finals, seems to have distorted their view.

To be honest Junktimer i think you just don't get it (or you haven't read to 220 posts in this thread) but I reckon even the Dogs are a better club than Carlton. Nothing to do with flags, just the way they offer support and leadership to their community. They are in fact part of their community whereas Carlton have never cared, John Elliot Park is an example, corrupt, trying to beat the system, cheating. The community were irrelevant.

However you enjoy your flags from yesteryear if you can remember them or you can pull out the old Betamax tape and have a look. Meanwhile down at Collingwood we are simply comfortable being the undisputed reigning Premiers.

So now where not a helping club?  you guys are getting pretty desperate.

If you must know, my mother works at a school for intellectually disabled children, and Carlton send down to players every year to run clinics and teach those kids how to play the game.  Last year Chris Judd and Jarrad Waite were the two.

I don't see how Collingwood do any more community work or how they offer more leadership to the community than Carlton.  Such claims are just unfounded and illogical.

To be fair Ossie, John Elliot avoided jail time I think for his convictions and did community service whilst Pratt avoided jail when convicted of collusion. I guess our fans and Carlton's leaders are in the same boat!

To be fair it is on topic, basically another reason why Collingwood is better than Carlton is because Miranda Kerr is a signed up Collingwood supporter.

I don't think anyone is getting hurt, or we are being mean, it is just that a picture tells a 1000 words.

Reason 235: Carlton are almost bankrupt whilst Collingwood's balance sheet is like a multinational company. Do you know (and this is true) that Collingwood were able to exclude the valuation of its heritage collection which is estimated to be worth more than all of Carlton's net assets. I know its about footy but who would have thought Carlton, once a powerhouse could fall so far.

So this thread get's is rightful position back on top of the tree ahead of the blockbuster on the weekend.

The status as I see it is that Carlton got way ahead of themselves about both their side and Premiership chances which help sell out the G for this weekend. A couple of injuries and suddenly the bubble has burst, the coach is no good again and maybe they are not coming as they thought they were. The Pies just keep on keeping on.

But two sides in the top 4 go out to battle on Saturday and it will be huge. If the Carlton swagger which was on display in June still remains can we avoid the "we'll be happy if we are just competitive" byline. After 2 losses in 3 weeks that just won't do. 

I actually think Carlton pose a genuine threat to the Pies but hope we really hope we can crush the spirits of another false dawn.

Loving this from Wikipedia on the history between Collingwood and Carlton.


Both clubs had a friendly and mutual regard for one another. However, by the 1910 Grand Final, things had started to change.[3]

Some see the 1910 Grand Final as the turning point in the hatred between the two football clubs. Early in the fourth quarter a huge brawl broke out involving at least thirty players and officials from both clubs. Collingwood held on to win by 14 points, but four players were reported for starting the big fight and as a result were heavily suspended.

Percy Sheehan of Carlton and Jack Shorten of Collingwood both were given 18 month suspensions while Jack Baquie of Carlton and Tom Baxter of Collingwood both received 12 month suspensions.

However, Collingwood appealed the Baxter suspension and produced a written declaration from another player, Richard Daykin. Daykin wrote that it was he and not Baxter who had traded blows with Baquie.

The VFL chose to accept Daykin’s confession and cleared Baxter of his 12 month suspension. Soon after Baxter was cleared, Daykin announced his immediate retirement from VFL football. Carlton vowed never to forget this day and they soon had their revenge by winning the Premiership from Collingwood in 1915.

Therefore you aren't loyal. Good decisions come bad decisions, you will never see a Collingwood supporter through and through stop supporting the Pies because of a recruitment decision, or even if the Buckley succession plan flops. While I will be irritated, I wont threaten to stop supporting them or actually do it.


Bad decisions are a way of life mate, a day to day event at every club. Get over it...

ok bit of grand final history between us

grand finals Coll V Carl   = 6

wins

Coll = 1 ( 1910 )
Carlton = 5 ( 1915, 1938, 1970,1979, 1981. )

Just trivial or Trivia

The only way you can judge who is better is by who's beaten teh other the most, or who has beaten the other in certain games, or in recent times.


Not sure what the overall is, but the recent is 7/4 Pies i think and as CFC said the GF is 5/1 Blues.


I think they are both good teams. Compared to my team. :P

Well hello, so by definition the rules are being changed. So in reality we are not breaking the rules. Doesn't every club try to get ahead somehow or another. Carlton's not the only club over the years to have a breach and in fact Collingwood have had the latest breach be it a mistake as they say.

The fact that the AFL approved the Visy-Judd deal was an absolute disgrace to begin with. But fair, not really Carlton's fault if the AFL approve this corruption.

And an administrative mistake that didn't go over the salary cap anyway that the club reported itself against a systematic rorting of the salary cap is not a fair comparison....

Well it may well look like a disgrace but the AFL most probably came to the realisation that they buried a proud, successful club in the early 2000's by handing out a punishment that did not fit the crime. So who knows they could have felt they needed to give a leg up to a club they could foresee could have been out for a generation. They would have killed the greatest rivalry in Australian sport (coll/carl). We would not be currently having this banter otherwise.

Bit hard to compare across codes but stripping of 2 premierships 3 minor premierships and all competition points is quite severe penalty. Would have been interesting if the NRL Committee sat and ruled on Carlton.

Perhaps but the storm won premierships in that time. Carlton didn't have anything to take and before you say the 95 flag that was way way earlier.

Well a Sydney organisation ruling on a Melbourne club you would expect the NRL to do just what they did. It would have been interesting if it was the rabbitohs or the bulldogs. The only other club that would have got the same would be Manly I suppose.

Apologies all but its time to bring up an old favourite thread given this weekend's activities.

It goes without saying that Collingwood would never, in a million years, poach, accept, employ, seek out or enter a contract with a former Head Coach of Carlton. Its just unthinkable.

I did like Dennis Paegan's work at Carlton, but employing him is another matter.

Go Pies!

Not bad timing. You would have to think the woods are favourites this week with 2 recognised forwards in Cloke and Lynch to our no forwards and Eddie breaking his jaw is bad timing.

However after watching "the club" this week and seeing Eddie say after Russell backing into a pack showing courage "we've got the carlton out of him". I just wanted to get into the TV and show him a bit of what carlton could do. Made me so mad. I'm so geared to watch this match and see the blues win. Anyway all the best and I hope its a great spectacle.

On another note what Collingwood did for the kid with cancer was quite special and well done.

Fidou, i'd prefer if you showed a little less class, it gets in the way of the hate & spite in the build-up to such games. Nice words.

One thing Coll v Carlton has rarely produced in the last 10 years is close games. I reckon the average margin would be over 6 goals, not sure I could handle a nail-biter.

the Pies were favourites last season early on too, that did not go well for us.

I think Mick will be GREAT for the blues and they will be a force by seasons end or next season.

but in THIS instance i think he will be the best thing that happens for the Pies in a blues game.

it is the blues attack and run and speed that blew us away last season, while they reverted to that last week after struggling to play micks way i am hopeful mick will start out again trying to play his way,

because at micks way - we are better :)

still he would remember last seasons shallacking and maybe he tells the blues this week to just come out and play attacking football. i doubt it tho as it really isnt good to play one way football and while it might just might win them one game here and there it wont win premierships....

Pies by 20, would be 40 but Beams is out :(

Not sure but I think Essendon did something wrong so that made us the 8th team and legitimate finalists and we won. Then there were 6. I know its hard for some people to handle (collingwood supporters) but the facts are we are still in the finals.

gloat, gloat, gloat!!!!!!!!

Bombers did nothing wrong in relation to what we were charged for- bringing the game into disrepute, as if the AFL and the media didn't do 99.99% of that.

Carlton didn't deserve to make finals.

The swans will roll the dice with Goodes and it may not come off could be a winner for the blues. Fingers crossed.

I don't think we will able to win like we have lately.

Malthouse giving the boys a kick in the backside at half-time isn't going to do it vs Sydney.

Need to be switched on from the start.

Well your right vinny as I cant remember the last time we beat sydney. Its a bit like Richmond and us I think its 11 out of 12 wins now. I was at a syd vs carl game a few years ago at the SCG and it was Dennis's 2nd last game in charge I think and we were getting flogged and Dennis walked past us coming out at 3/4 time and my mate Brownie shouting out your doing a great job Dennis. Dennis was gone a week later and every time I see Brownie at work now I just remark your doing a great job Brownie"
