All we can go by is at the end of the year win loss ratioNo PP. Should’ve beat GWS. No problems there. But it was there competitive effort against the ladder leaders that make a PP not even in the conversation.

All we can go by is at the end of the year win loss ratio
let’s see what the final tally tells us
We are a win loss industryOn what basis is that all that we can go by?
When this thread was made North were 0-6 and just barely scoring over 50 points in a game with a % of 45.7
Ever since then North has gone 1-1-4, scoring over 75 points a game with a % of 77.8
Improvement is happening, PP not required.

Lol.Yeah, I reckon we are fine for talent. Our main issue is lack of fitness. GWS kicked their scores against us late in quarter.
What we need more than a priority pick is someway to condense multiple preseasons into one.

Lol.
It was the same as the Melbourne game. We were the better team for long periods, but ran out of legs. The only difference being that it was a quarter later this time.
List still has issues, but no more than any other developing list.
Not really.But that's pure happenstance than design.
Not really.
U get the first pick of all available players in Australian in June.
I think th e MSD draft will be become a fixture as clubs look for older players to draft rather than kids.
Newcombe already looks good.
Really.
It was only because Vic Metro kids couldn't play last year that Edwards was there.
There's never been a first round quality kid available in the MSD and it is unlikely there ever will be again.
This is all dependent on us finishing last and not winning another game:Not required and won’t even be a thought for Gil, who ultimately makes the decisions. North pushed the Demons, who outside of deplorable umpiring bias, would be undefeated this year. No small feat to push them like North did. Today they drew against a full GWS outfit. Some would argue North could’ve won. This isn’t the football we’ve seen from battling sides of the past who got PP’s. Gold Coast historically cannot be placed in the discussion, as they are an AFL baby, who were ripped apart by stronger AFL teams. They didn’t choose to let players leave - they had no say. There is zero chance North get a PP.

The same point you make for why GC shouldn't get a pick is the same reason North shouldn't get one and no one should get one.This is all dependent on us finishing last and not winning another game:
If there is still a PP at pick 19 this year (the AFL gave one to the GC a couple of years ago) then why shouldn't the team that came last (ie us), won 4 games in the last 2 seasons so far and finished in the bottom 2 three times in five years get it?
Why should some other team that will most likely beat us twice this season (GC) get it?
Should we come last and miss out on a chance to draft inside the top 20 twice because of some other teams PP? That isn't how the draft is sposed to work is it?
We will get some good players back as the year drags on so we aren't even a certainty to finish last yet (and if we do we may still win one or two,) tho its a good chance we will get the spoon. But whoever comes last why is the GC getting pick 19 (at this stage)? Unless the finish last they shouldn't be getting it.
Personally i'd prefer they scrapped the thing but if they don't we should get it.
Cats - heavily favoured by father son in 2000sI love when hawks or blues supporters comment on this
which teams have not received a priority pick ever?
north, cats, crows, eagles, port, dogs? Swans but they rort the academy instead
Still has valuable experience.PP would be wasted on Scott Clayton.
Supposedly "highly regarded" and like Johnny Barker has survived in the AFL system for decades like a cockroach.
Heard him interviewed the other day.
Seriously sounds like he's not all there.
Think the Eagles maybe realised this real quick.

I'd wait until you get out of the bottom four before you start handing out the AOs.Still has valuable experience.
We have Glenn Luff from CD and Rawlings to help keep his more eccentric ideas in check anyway. Finnegan is no slouch either.
