who are the other teams?

Carlton - haven't been relevant for years, gifted finals because of Essendon's drug saga
Melbourne - finally will make finals this season but they were rock bottom for however many years
Gold Coast - have literally been handed everything on a silver platter and legit may as well start again
Brisbane - got some good young talent in at the moment but again haven't been relevant in finals for a while

I know we haven't been playing finals, I get it but we have been bloody close twice and in the last 5 years picked in the top 3 twice, two top 10's last season and a wealth of cash apparently. Priority pick (IN MY OPINION) isn't even something that'l be discussed because I feel teams like Gold Coast will be given assistance first, Carlton don't even deserve one, if they can't get one then the odds of us getting one should be zero.

How many top 12 picks have we traded during that time? Might I add because in 2004-2010 we were actually a good side we weren't going to have a top 12 pick? 2011 also finals no top 12 pick. Like most of those teams were either crap or new to the league, of course they will have more top 12 picks than us, we can't want picks back because we were stupid enough to trade some or be good enough not to need them?

So your argument is because they have got them and we haven't we should get them? You get them when you need them, Melbourne were getting done by 100 points every week, Carlton have been a basketcase for a decade or longer, GWS and GC obviously have a tonne they are what fricken 10 years old? Brisbane haven't been good since the early 2000's....seriously of course all those teams are going to have more top 12 picks and more PP's we are having a bad year, this is a knee jerk reaction I assure you it isn't as bad as it seems, certainly not bad enough to warrant a PP, if anything our form over the last two weeks suggests wins will be coming our way soon, if we were in priority pick territory we would've lost those two game the previous two weeks by 100+ especially being undermanned.

No. Just asked? It was rhetorical because they all have but us. They all have multiple top 13 picks bar us.

It speaks for itself

Well maybe if we consistently finish at the bottom of the ladder every year we will catch up to them all in the race for who can get the most top 12 picks.

We might as well play the game all those other clubs have.
Doesnt mean just cause we accept a handout for a change.
That makes us beggars that are unworthy.
Let US make off like the rest of the bandits in the AFL!
 
The AFL will not give one to a team that almost made finals in 2016-17. I would like one still, but no chance .

Having pick 3 and 57 in a super draft is painful.

I think Stevens is done. Robbo is fine, and McCartin isn't done yet.

Is Robbo fine? You know this for sure? Hope you're right.

He's been put through a process where he's been monitored. He can't do any sort of heavy training but with the articles and his conference, I believe it was stated that the final decision will be decided end of the season but as of now he is fine and he looks to be moving good.
 
so latest media reports are the AFL are prepared to hand carlton and GC one. but it wont be at the start of the first round and it wont be at the end. that tells me it probably will occur somewhere in the middle.

brisbane winning helps create a clear delineation between the sides that havent received a priority pick that are down the bottom of the ladder and have been for sometime

if we don't apply for one we are going to feel it longer term. we absolutely must be successful in getting what carlton and gold coast get
