Priority pick 2015

Doesn't look like we can win to many more games so I wander if this 'secret formuler' by the AFL will grant us a PP if we win less then 4 games.

Pick 1 and 2,3 or 4 could definitely snag us a star or 2 in trades and set us up

Yes Olisk unless there is a standout available we should trade trade trade

It's been established already that no matter how poorly you perform, if the word Melbourne is in or associated with your club's name, you don't qualify for a priority pick under the rules.

I love how playing the 3 best teams in the last 3 weeks and a serious run of injuries that has exposed our known to be shallow depth = we wont win many games. I still expect us to win 6-8 which was what I expected at years start.


there will never be a priority pick. close thread

I presume that with Carlton performing as badly as they are there will be talk somewhere inside the AFL about a priority pick, but it won't concern us.

don't want it. Topping up draft handouts has gotten us nowhere except to contribute to a soft culture that may be permanently ingrained,

Tough luck for North Melbourne then.


FK me seriously? are we really that worse then 2013 that after playing basically the top 3 sides of the competition that some supporters actually think we should get a priority pick!? LMAO!

FMD I know we obviously haven't matched up to them but jeez ease up on the wrist slashing.

Laughable thread.

When will the static out of AFL house hint that Gold Coast will get a PP?

We're a third of the way into the season for heaven's sake. Put your begging bowl to one side.

The premise of the thread is based on an incorrect assumption that we wont win 3 more games.

As stated previously, we have played 2 teams outside of the top eight... and have beaten them both comprehensively.

PP are based on history as well as current season. If lucky we can beat 2 of Carlton Brisbane and St. Kilda at best if we are firing.

If we only snatch 2 of those we will be on 4 wins this season. That + our past should put us in the box seat


Complete dribble.

"Formuler" FM.

Let's instil a culture of hard work to get what you want.

[censored] the handouts, if we keep asking for them we will never be taken seriously as a club.

"Check out Melbourne asking for a handout again."

Rubbish thread.

And what do you plan on doing with these so called hand outs that you desperately want?

I said earlier, if we can trade it for a gun mid or 2 it will definitely help us. Our playing list is still a rabble, a few injuries and we go down [censored] creek.

I presume that with Carlton performing as badly as they are there will be talk somewhere inside the AFL about a priority pick, but it won't concern us.

I read in an article the other day about the issue of GWS and CG mining talent with their crazy draft concessions and the effect that has had on CARTLON's ability to recruit.

NOT US, CARLTON!

But when we made the same argument last year, no press, no sympathy.

We threw pick 3 last year and no one had a nibble. What makes you so sure that we will land a gun mid? And if we don't? We will pick up more kids and you will start exact same thread next year saying we need a priority pick because we are getting flogged by top 3 sides..

You are amazing aren't you.....

Apart from Freo in Round 22, I give us a good shot in all other matches.

We'll win at least 6 I'd of thought, so zero chance of a priority pick.

7 games in and we have a thread on a potential priority pick.

Some posters on here never cease to amaze.

This is pretty close to spot on. We've gotten our worst stretch out of the way and we will certainly win a few more games before the season is out.

Stop picking on the poor kid. Olisik's favourite topics to post about are draft picks and trades. If they didn't have that, then they would never contribute to this forum.

Just leave it be.

not true, it is very obvious to me that we had a deal all stitched up involving pick 3+12(?) for somebody but Richmond's medical screwed us

every chance to do the same this year, we don't need a PP to do it though

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
