I think this is an important distinction between then and now. There is a lot less to gain now than there was.

There’s still the potential to get pick one if a rejuvenated North wins a game and goes past them. That’s an incentive.

Edit: particularly if North get a priority pick and push WC to pick 3.

We tanked. Others tanked. It's just that we did it more flagrantly than the others. Same as peptides. Dons drugged. Others drugged. It's just that the Dons did it more flagrantly than others.

Is it? The strike rate for pick #1 being better than picks #2 or #3 is hardly that impressive. Accordingly, it probably doesn't really matter whether a team has picks 1, 2 or 3.
