    Hopefully we can win at least 2 more games to finish the year...Gold Coast have Melb, GWS and St.Kilda in the last 4 - so we are going to finish 15th pretty much regardless now as St.Kilda won't win another game.
    Happy that this is pretty much locked in now....otherwise we would be in the god-awful position of wanting to win but being more concerned about finishing below St Kilda from a draft perspective. Now I can barrack my lungs out for a win without any conflicting voices in the back of my head.
    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

      Agree. One rung up the draft ladder is not worth sacrificing something that has taken us many years to instill.

        Had been thinking that myself until the Eagles win and StKilda's dismal form.

        With our worst case scenario being pick 5 I think we should go flat out for the last 4 weeks.

It feels much better to be activily competetive than limping towards the end of the year using the "giving youngsters a go" excuse and generally being shit.
              Much better than not trying and asking for handouts from the AFL! When will that club get the message!
