    If we are going to miss, then the lower the pick the better (not advocating tanking). Pick 8 is good Lever/Kelly bait.
    You know the point is making finals, winning premierships and all that not getting good draft picks for other clubs.

    Though it is a good deal...

    Why didn't you tell the players that this year?

    Are you free to take pre-season training in October? Oh, and kick the ball through the two big sticks too as another message.

    Yep, it is going to take 11 wins in row to win it.
    Brendan Goddard will make a movie about it.

    Sorry.
    I remember now, that is what I said on the way to the G on Sunday.
    Now it is only 10 but an outside chance of getting it done in 9.

    Re: How Many More Wins?

    If we play off in the GF, I will put $500 on the bar at Beer Deluxe for woofers on GF morning.

    So I don't think we will be there, but I offered Eastie 1000/1 on any bet last year at this time of the season about nothing happening (which thank your soul Eastie you didn't take up), so $500 is the balance between my confidence in this year being unfortunately unfulfilling, but that nagging chance of against the odds. I think we just let a couple of games go that are the difference.

    Book mark it.
