Priority pick

[Skoob]

I have always been against priority picks - I would be a hypocrite if I said we should get one. Personally I hope we don't go down this path.

I'm half the same. PPs punish everyone for one club's failings or misfortune.
I am however happy to be a hypocrite, and think it is perfectly fine for our club to get one.

Screw a priority pick! Winning games of footy is just way to good!

We would be the first club outside Victoria to get a PP right? Imagine the outcry!!!!

LOL GWS and GC say Hi.

LOL GWS and GC say Hi.

I'm sure they do, but neither got a priority pick.

You won't get a priority pick.
You're list isn't that bad.
You get the Queensland concessions anyway.
What you need is a new coach.

I don't think we'll get a priority pick. Just pointing out that you're completely incorrect on the GWS and GC link. What we do need is less poor Collingwood posters doing terrible trolling, so move along. Again.

Ahhh all those sweet, sweet Qld concessions.

No, I'm not incorrect about the priority picks.

These were the drafts designed not just to build a team/club, but so they would dominate the competition. It's not trolling to suggest that they got priority picks. Many suggested they would trade off premierships, which personally I objected to myself, and I'm right (GCS). However with those picks they should be dominating in a few years. I think GWS will make it, which I'm happy about.

The thing that might go over many people's heads on this board is, many supporters are not caught up in bigfooty rivalries. Many supporters love their club and love the game. Many supporters, myself included, want the game to grow in QLD and NSW so see the need for some form of concessions.

You already get those and more with the zone concessions. The list isn't that bad, you don't deserve a priority pick and that any club deserves one is irony in itself.

Where exactly on those pages does it say GC or GWS got priority picks?

It's not trolling to suggest that they got priority picks.

It's trolling to hop on here and tell us to sack our coach. What response do you think that's going to engender?

And so we move on to other discussion.

Happy for the AFL to give us money to get out of debt or towards a new training facility, don't want a PP. Was annoying having to listen to all the muppets saying we only won our flags because of COLA, will be the same if we get a PP and win a flag.

**** the other clubs and what they think, they will always find a way to discredit us for our success and you can bet they will use the cheap academy excuses. To me, their terrible excuses to why we won three in a row just makes me smile, those salty Victorian fans can go and get ****ed.
