From Wikipedia:

"A vortex can be seen in the spiraling motion of air or liquid around a center of rotation"

Nice use of grammar Stillwaiting :)

The plural of vortex is vortices although vortexes is accepted as well.

And of course even if vortexs was correct it should have been vortexs and not vortex's.

Looks like I was too quick off the mark in congratulating Stillwaiting :oops:

Tanking games should not be an option - EVER! Need to promote a winning culture, and "tanking" will not provide that.

That is CRAP. Collingfilth TANKED in 2005 which netted them Dale Thomas and Scott Pendlebury. Even Collingfilth supporters admit that.

Collingwood were rebuilding throughout that period - not sure I clasify that as tanking. Do you think we tanked to pick up Roo and Kosi?

Early draft picks help, but they are not the solution. A winning culture has a massive impact on a team. For instance, the Hawks are playing with a belief in their team at the moment. One could even argue the Cats last week were decimated and it made no difference.

They were not rebuilding, they deliberately tanked. Played the youngsters and put everyone in for season ending surgery.

Go ahead and ask me any obsure question about St Kilda from say the year 1971 until current day. More than likely I will be able to answer it

Their team from the early 2000s had their shot, they were never going to win a GF. Obviously in your eyes it's a thin line between a team tanking and a team seeing who is going to be part of their future.
