We could now get pick 2
With today's shock win by the Suns, we’re now a chance to get pick 2.

Re: We could now get pick 2
looking good - suns need to beat carlton, brisbane have a home game v the suns in a couple of weeks, but in current form may beat the crows or north anyway.
we're even odds to get 17th.
Yay!?

Re: We could now get pick 2
Possible but I doubt it. The Suns may pinch one more at the most and will probably lose to Carlton (I hope they beat them as the meltdown at Princes Park would be glorious). Also, I think we'll win a few more.

Re: We could now get pick 2
f*** Pick 2. We need to win games to attract players and build for 2019. We will get top 6 pick anyway. The top 10 are all as good eachother each draft.

Re: We could now get pick 2
PS I have to disagree completely. We want Sam Walsh first and foremost. He is a gun and will take a lot of pressure of Jack Steven in the middle. He will be gone by pick 3, maybe 2. If Suns win and go above us any compo pick they get wont effect us i.e. if they come 3rd they will most likely get 3rd and fourth so if we come second last we are golden.parkeysainter wrote: ↑Sat 21 Jul 2018 7:00pm f*** Pick 2.

We still need to win games but if we don't it is not a bad thing

Re: We could now get pick 2

Lions will give the Crows a serious run for their money on current form lines.

When was the last time a player kicked 3 consecutive goals - without any other score?

Re: We could now get pick 2
would really like to, and would expect, the brisbane lions and the gc suns to move above us by the end of the season which would guarantee a top 3 pick. Brisbane are playing better footy than us which is merely a reflection on our coaching department vs theirs which really stems from the hawks. Says everything really

Re: We could now get pick 2
I think we'll end up with Pick 4 or 5, so I doubt Walsh will still be there. Any other quality mids within our reach?DJ Higgins wrote: ↑Sat 21 Jul 2018 8:13pmPS I have to disagree completely.

Re: We could now get pick 2
How about this for a trade, our pick 4 or 5 and Bruce to the Gold Coast for pick 2 and their second round pick?

Re: We could now get pick 2
Games remaining.
Suns: carlton (h), dees (a), tigers (h), lions (h), cats (a)
Lions: cats (a), north (h), pies (a), suns (a), eagles (h)
Saints: giants (a), dogs (h), dons (a), hawks (h), north (h)
we definitely have the easier run home but hard to see wins given every opponent is above us.
The Suns and Lions both play a team below or equal with them.
All three have had big upset wins in the last few weeks though so anything can happen.
But as i said i reckon we're fifty-fifty for 17th.

Re: We could now get pick 2
Suns beat Carlton
Bris beat Suns
Carlton lose to everybody
WB really is our only chance but will not tart favourites. Essendon, Hawthorn and North? still in finals mix potentially .
Pick 2 should be ours , apart from Melbourne we have only beat teams worse than us Carlton, GC, Bris (Rnd 1) .
Be silly to do anything but this , and i find it hard to believe a win or 2 against teams which are middle of the pick will change the mind of a Gaff, McGovern etc about whether or not to join us. It will be either $$$ or the potential of the list, or both , not whether we win 4.5 games or 6.5. ( proviso is not being smashed).

Re: We could now get pick 2
For some reason we like playing GWS, and the other 4 games are against middle of the road clubs which are gettable when we are on.

Re: We could now get pick 2
that reason is that we always play them at etihad. the one game we've played at spotless in the last five years they kicked double our goals.
