Never been a fan of the idea, particularly when it has been so self-inflicted.

Without being remotely close to winning a game for the year? No team has achieved this in 50 years and none in modern AFL.

Normally takes consecutive years to get one.

Can't see it happening after one season. I'm hopssistance might come in the form secret
This will be our leg up from the AFL. A tweaking of the compensation special sauce. Pick 1 and 2 step right up

A bigger deal out west.
I'd be trying my hardest to get one. I doubt we will, but the AFL might be really panicking about us being a basketcase in a post COVID-19 world.
I'd prefer a new board over a priority pick.

I know what you mean, but we aren't bad, we're putrid. We've been bad for a couple of seasons before this.
We are putrid, but have a few injuries. We could have snagged the game against Essendon or Sydney with a bit of luck. Unless we go winless this year and next then I can't see it happening. Then again, the AFL did give good picks to Brisbane and now look at them. Also gave much uneeded picks to Carlton. They also gave pick 3 to Melbourne for Frawley so we cannot underestimate their corruption/poor decision making.
We'll finish bottom next year too by the look of our squad.
I know people are saying to get rid of this thread etc but we have now lost 12 in a row? With a very good chance of losing 20+ in a row. This is getting to unprecedented levels of bad. We aren't even close to being a competitive team. Definitely be asking for end of first round this year.
There isn't really any pride in the way we play, coach or run this team so why would we be too proud to ask for assistance?

Well then we are no chance as the VAFL is rigged.... that's why they get rid of black & white rules.

You might recall when we asked about priority picks a few years back the AFL all of a sudden decided state league mature players were the best form of priority picks.
They quickly reverted back to draft picks when only gold coast had their hand out.
You won't get one this season, but will probably get good compo if you lose Crouch

Gold Coast even got a priority pick this year... but spent it, knowing that they were at risk of losing it.

I would argue that's probably in our favour with this... After all, one of the small amount of financially secure clubs in the league threatening to circle the drain would certainly have an AFL exec nervous. 2-3 years down the bottom and we may not be secure after all, depending on how.
particularly when suns and bears were the last 2 teams lobbying for them and look how they came out of the blocks.
