So Nickster's a simple yes or no question for you all.
Do you want to beat G.W.S or do you prefer we tank for better draft picks?
Do you want to win in order to restore a little pride and keep our faint finals hopes alive or have you given up on your hopes for this season and believe finishing as low as possible will at least salvage a little positive from the season?
I don't know if finishing 12th will be low enough to secure Moore for a second rounder, it probably still wont be but I do know that winning this week will mean those hopes are well and truly over.
For this reason entirely I hope we lose this week.
Short term pain to my pride for possible long term gain is how I'm looking at it as getting Moore for a second rounder would be a steal and effectively see us gain 4 top 10 picks in two seasons.

Not Really Fussed either way.
We won’t make Finals and our 1st Round Pick will be Darcy Moore

There is a game this week?
Oh yes, of course there is. Silly of me, I forgot. Not a very interesting game though. Oz v Zimbabwe, wasn't it?

Yeah, of course. I understand the long-term benefits of tanking, but in this case they're negligible and to be honest I'd rather see us play to win in every game. Would be nice to finish the season on something of a high note.

I'd like a big win, a young group hyped up to have a real crack at Hawthorn the next week.
Fu@k tanking, we are the Magpies! |

Granted something more definite was on offer then but season 2005 says hello.
