Priority Pick?!

[RichosGuns]

I know its still reasonably early in the year but I just wanted to get everyones opions on whether we should tank in an effort to get the 2nd round priority pick. This would most likley mean 3 top 20 picks which could results in 2 inside midfielders and the bets ruckman in the draft?

I can't remmber if its winning no more then 4 or 5 games but would it be worth it? Personally I really cannot decide. After the two trips to Adelaide we have some really winnable games against the Dons, Roos, Lions and Dees?

In saying that the way we performed on the weekend we may not even win 5 games even if we do try to win. I will take solice if we can beat the Hawks, Roos, Blues and Dons this year.

I voed for fight out the season and gain some respect but the facts are we will struggle to win the 4-5 games required to miss out on a priority pick so in that case we can achieve the best of both worlds. Show some heart and spirit and yet still get some more quality kids on the list in the draft.

Not sure we have to tank to get a PP this season. Hard to imagine us winning an interstate game, that only leaves 11 winnable games. St Kilda * 2, Geelong and Port Adelaide will be tough. Leaves 7. On our form over the first 5 rounds we would be doing well to win 4 of those 7 games.

What will really hurt is if we finish bottom and dont get pick 1 as Carlton win less than 4.5 games.

we have it just about wrapped up methinks. no need to tank, but i vote tank anyway just because i am feeling so pessimistic.

We dont need to "tank."

Its in the bag.

We don't need to tank to get them. All we need to hope is that Carlton and Essendon win 5 games each.

I voted tank but I honestly can't see us winning 4 1/2 games anyway so I suppose it doesn't really matter.
