Look, it's unlikley we will make finals next year. And I know we need a year of winning 8-10 games for development purposes. But next year's draft is strong, and the two top picks (plus someone good in the PSD) would set us up for a decade of complete dominance.

Your thoughts?

@#$%&! THAT, ENOUGH OF THE TANKING

No more meaningless wins. We need access to the best young talent in the land.

I thought GAVROMAN would start this discussion.

I want to bypass swear filter just to call you a bypass swear filter for even suggesting such bypass swear filter.

FFS- go and 'support' somewhere else.

We've just had our most exciting pre season since we recruited Diesel and you're starting threads on tanking? Depressing!

Do you think we could get Jonathan Brown?

we have to tank for two years in a row before we get another priority pick at the start of the draft. that is 08 and 09 4 games or less to get 1 and 2.


plus the fact that if we waste two years of Judd, Stevens, Fevola and Pratt

Develop what we've got and have faith in the 25 players we have recruited in the last 4 years.

We have turned over the list. We will pick up 2 guns next year and probably do allright in the trade department; we are flavour of the month again!

Have faith in Ratts. In Ratts we trust.

Get on the Juddenaut.

Possible premiership side 2010-2011:

Backs: Austin Jamison Walker

Half-Backs: Bower (2008 pick 2) Thornton

Midfield: Stevens Judd Hadley

Half-Forward Line: Fisher Kreuzer Waite

Full Forward: Grigg Fevola Murphy

Rucks: Natinui (2008 pick 1) Gibbs Scotland

We need Natinui and a key defender, which we can get from next year if we tank.
