Re. We've tanked well historically.

we've never tanked. Ironically the only team you could definitively state that has obviously tanked, also holds the most premiership flags.

I don't know if we've tanked well...the draft of 1900 didn't help us at all. At least tanking in 1955 got us a new coach...you idiot.

At the end of this season Carlton will have had just as many AFL Premierships as St Kilda.

If we'd tanked well, we would have gotten priority picks in 2002...5 wins and a draw ...

Yes, but there will also be an asterisk next to theirs.

Arguably a better place to be than watching us play that year. BTW, when was the priority pick system introduced?

It would have been around 2000 but someone will know for sure. It got us Kosi but the hawks have done better because they got Hodge and Franklin.
