For sure, I'm not suggesting the rivalry is the be all and end all, I'm just saying its alive and well (thanks to groups like the SOC and the Woodsmen) and neither team will give an inch next week.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Media keep the old school rivalry's alive because its good for business and ratings...the AFL love it too and Carlton playing finals especially vs the traditional rivals is a money tree guaranteed  to grow the AFL purse.

Yes, I think that's part of it. The groups that GTC refers to are completely justified in their feelings on this issue, but I think they represent a niche demographic within the supporter base, and one that is on the decline. The media is also keen to keep creating new rivalries.

First home game in a month -- tough run for the lads but still think Collingwood are a little soft.

We have the added incentive of ruining the Pies double chance now. Go Blues!
Reality always wins in the end.

Collingwood didn't like the in-close pressure against the Swans today. Cut the free run that have been enjoying lately.

I reckon if we win we will play them again the first week of finals.

It got reversed today and they got found out. big time. Of their 7 goals 4 were frees, some real shockers, and two very generous turnovers.
