Yep, we'll finish last and not get pick 1... AFL will screw us first before they help us.


This will not happen.

The team that finishes last will get the first pick.

Not if the AFL grant the Suns a PP before the first round.
This happened in 2007. We did not finish last yet got the first pick.

What we should get and what we will get are entirely different things. At best we'll get the pre round 2 PP.

Reamed? The AFL hasn't reamed Carlton for a very long time. The Carlton hierarchy have been too busy reaming themselves. The time to get mad has long passed.


Sadly, at many levels, and very good at it too!

Carlton not requesting a PP and the admission that the clubs current plight is of their own doing is probably the most honest appraisal I have heard coming from the club in a very long time

Every clubs plight is a matter of their own doing.

If we don’t request a priorty pick it could end up leaving us with Pick 2 in this years draft, that would be a negligent outcome on behalf of our administration.

Every team that finishes last does so of their own doing. Every club anchored for long periods at the foot of the table does so at their own hand. This pseudo ethics/pride/posturing BS does my head in. We are a franchise within a larger corporation. Continual poor performance degrades the value of a once valuable asset. Much as Myers or KMart or Target go back cap in hand to the parent company asking for $$ to invest in a plan to reinvigorate and refresh their once powerful and popular business so must the mighty blues. Any type of emotive claptrap about 'earning respect' etc is so amateurish that is laughable and presumably rolled out as fodder for the numpties at the Sports Bar or the TAB on a Saturday arvo. That massive game on the weekend, the Richmond Collingwood game, the one the state stopped for, the one with the massive ratings and a full MCG, we used to do that all the time. That pathetic flogging at Etihad with a half empty stadium, we used to laugh at other clubs who did that. A powerful Carlton would bring the punters out of the woodwork just like Richmond has, it would fill seats, sell Pay TV subscriptions and sell Medallion Club packages. It would boost ratings and increase the value of the competition. All of these things are much more valuable than any pseudo socialist science experiment inspired by the social planners and serial apologists.

"It's certainly by convention that clubs nominate or request a priority pick, and I think that convention should apply. I've had the guys look at the rules and technically clubs don't need to, but I think convention applies," McLachlan said.

2ndeffort nailed it. We should be saying to the afl, stop @#$%&! around trying to force rugby league people to give a shit. GWS has a dream team, brilliant to watch, but their tiny stadium is half filled with people who didn't pay to enter. Last year i attended the carlton game at spotless with 4 family members, and we had 11 free tickets between us, they're confetti. The treasure is buried under the clubhouses of the foundation teams, not in the mythical land of nob. Get real, cauliflower.

"Carlton has not finished outside the bottom six since 2013."

If that doesn't qualify you for the maximum possible assistance then I'd really wonder what would.

So Gil has had someone look at the rules and he has now realised that the club does not in fact have to apply for one.
What is this convention thing he is crapping on about?

It's the mandatory wriggle room that the AFL demands and deliberately implements in every facet of their organisation that allows them to fix their @#$%&! ups.

This is the AFL's version of when you question dodgy orders and get the 'because i said so' card!!
