Next year would be when I’d expect it

 

[Rob R]

It will be part of their transition package to Tassie for the 22 season.

Your North Melbourne, not the Suns, GWS or Sydney...

So highly doubtful

 

[DamianBis]

I thought priority picks were gone... Afl should give you access to state league players.

This year? No chance. Zero. None. And frankly it's laughable to suggest otherwise.

Let's see how they go in 2021 but I'd say there's a similarly low chance for the end of next season.

 

[Andy_Mac]

The AFL would have to be more inclined to put in administrators rather than picks at this point. North need more than just a list rebuild.

This off-season has just been a cluster f....

Maybe this is the catalyst to get them to Tassie.

Why.

They get handed out to other clubs in similar circumstances.

Agree this year is a year too early, but we've seen worse done.

This is about onfield performance only, not our debt free profit making off field work.

Do they?

Name them.

Your OP seems to indicate you don't agree.

 

[blueiris]

I feel priority picks are dead after the AFL hugely favored the Suns last year

 

[The Warlord]

Name them.

Hawthorn, Carlton x 2, Melbourne, Bulldogs.

I think we deserve one this year - end of first - but I acknowledge this year is unlikely.

 

[perplexed]

I think we should be able to pre-list any Vic kids without having to use draft pic ks on them.

Priority draft pick - Wikipedia

A list? That's lazy and doesn't answer the question.

Do better.

 

[TENACIOUS]

You would be in the same boat as Carlton was, they would see you're in this position due to your own choosing..

The max you would or should get next year is access to 2 state league players or move to Tassie and get some ridiculous AFL package

 

[The Warlord]

Edited it.

North results last few years ...

2020 ... 17th

2019 ... 12th

2018 ... 9th

2017 ... 15th

These are numbers that reflect such a move is appropriate imo.

 

[PMBangers]

It's been one year of being a complete rabble on field, by this logic Sydney and Adelaide should also get Priority Picks

 

[JasRulz63]

Brisbane qualified for an end of first round compensation pick at the end of 2016.

Apparently the decision took into account 14 wins over the previous 3 seasons, 3 wins in 2016 with an average losing margin on 60 points (and only winning 17 quarters, eight less than Essendon who were missing their ASADA players), previous three finishing positions of 15th, 17th and 17th, and no finals appearance for 7 years (and two for the previous 12 years).

I reckon North are about two years away from that.

 

[David C]

Need to be in the bottom 4 for multiple years. Come back in 2 years time if you're still in the bottom 2.

 

[Jeremias]

Edited it.

So the most recent example you have is from over 10 years ago, when the rules for obtaining a priority pick were completely different to what they are now.

I thought you said similar circumstances?

In the space of 45 minutes you've gone from North deserve a priority pick, to it's too early this year, and then back to North deserving one. You're a bit all over the place.

2020 ... 17th

2019 ... 12th

2018 ... 9th

2017 ... 15th

These are the kind of numbers that generate assistance.

As are the rules, as you acknowledge.

The rules have changed many times.

And as the rules stand, picks are given at the discretion of the Commission.

So there's nothing stopping one being given this year.

 

[The Warlord]

This is obviously a troll thread. The team didn’t even finish on the bottom FFS.

The only thing stopping us finishing bottom is the fact we beat the bottom side.

If we'd played Adelaide later in the year they would have beaten us and we'd bottom.

2020 ... 17th

2019 ... 12th

2018 ... 9th

2017 ... 15th

These are numbers that warrant the assistance given to other clubs.

or alternatively;

2019: 18th
2018: 17th
2017: 17th
2016: 15th

3 years in a row bottom 2 is much more of a dire situation than 4 years not making finals
