Something's Wrong

[CaptainCustard]

Something wrong with a system that when you get to the business end of the season and you know you're not going to make the finals that you hope your team starts losing just to get a few draft picks.

It goes against my nature to hope they lose - but if we don't win, we lose out next draft.

Gotta be a better way.

First pick should go to team finishing 9th, 2nd pick to 10th etc then 10th pick to 8th, 11th pick to 7th etc.

Would keep everybody focussed on winning, but still evening the competition to some degree. Still have a priority pick for 5 games or under.

Either that or raffle the first 8 picks between the bottom eight clubs.

Top pick

1st pick should go to the premier - then raffle the next few off.

I see no alternative but using a lottery for the bottom eight clubs.

It just doesn't make sense that teams would intentionally lose games (unless they are coached by Ken Judge!).

Maybe there was a secret motive when we chased Judge some years ago, we were having a crack at the No. 1 pick.
