On one hand, beggars can't be choosers, and it isn't as though Hawthorn/Brisbane/Sydney never received a priority pick.

On the other, that's how you win hearts and minds; you take it on yourself to claw it back, earn the respect of the competition by doing it the hard way.

It's a good news story, if nothing else. It does trouble me, though, if we're doing it for the look rather than admitting we are actually that bad this year.

So at least we don't have to speculate on that for the next 6 months.
me thinks that was the exact purpose of Liddles statement. Then, if we dont win another game, he can come out and say "no one saw us not winning another game- we have rethought it and will be applying"
He gets to have his cake and eat it too.

Can’t wait to see how the media turn this in to a negative story..
"They're being negligent in their rebuild. If they were serious they'd demand that draft pick, how will they explain this to there fans? How can they expect the fans to support this rebuild if the club is voluntarily short-changing themselves?"

Or something to that effect, after saying we don't deserve one for the last few weeks. Nothing but parasites.

How that ******* wanka has a job in the media is mind boggling.
I cannot stress this enough; Kane Cornes is like any other troll in existence, but with one exception. He is paid to do it.

By discussing his point of view, by retweeting him, by listening and responding to him with the outrage his commentary is designed to evoke, you are empowering him and ensuring that he gets to keep doing it. You are safeguarding his career.

Ignore him. You'll have better blood pressure, and eventually he'll have to change tack or leave the industry.

What I really love from the club this year is the show of unity, in the face of inherent ramblings from certain sections of the media.

They want us to succumb to the pressure. However we aren' t backing down in regards to our plan, our list, bolts etc.

We'rr showing strength in a time of weakness, and many can' stomach that.

Keep it up Cfc.

Mark Robinson had Carlton is his dislikes this morning saying 'where has that been?' It was there 2 weeks before when we smacked Essendon and it was there when we went close to the Dogs and lost to the red hot Eagles. Negative, negative, negative. He can get stuffed.
His head might explode tonight when discussing priority picks.

did you read that ******** cornes' response?

"how noble of them"
Make the most of this time while we're down Cornes you prick, for when we start our climb back up the ladder, it'll be campaigners like you I'll enjoy watching try and back peddle the most

What gets me is anyone would think that we've already asked for a pp and been declined already . Media build and nothing else.

So suck on that cornes you......
