Wooden spoon won't necessarily scoop priority pick

[the_boy_jake]

Hang on so lets say we 'win' the spoon.

Melbourne finish second last, Carlton third last with 4 wins.

From what little I have read the National draft will go like this:

1st Pick - Richmond
2nd Pick - Melbourne
3rd Pick - Carlton
.
.
.
.
.
.
17th Pick (Priority) - Carlton
18th Pick - Richmond
19th Pick - Melbourne
20th Pick - Carlton

Or am I horribly wrong?

EDIT: The Journos can't seem to decide exactly whether it is 4 and 4 or 8 over two years but it looks like I am wrong....

I am pretty sure if Carlton win less than 4 and half, because it'll be two years running, they will get a priority pick and it will be before the first round, which means number 1.

We will get pick number 2.

Yep you're right wayne.

Going by Carlton's draw it's hard to see them winning another 3 games unless they cause a couple of upsets. I don't think they've won a game since Stevens got injured.

That's why I was barracking so hard for them on the wkd

Nope. Not quite right.

1st Pick - Carlton
2nd Pick - Richmond
3rd Pick - Melbourne
4th Pick - Carlton

17th Pick - Richmond
18th Pick - Richmond
19th Pick - Melbourne
20th Pick - Carlton

After a bit of research I'm very sure that this the right order if Carlton end up with priority.

ok ... i see ...

thats every interesting ...

so we could finish last and not get the "1st Pick"!!! ... thats so funny!!! ... yet f***ing harsh ...

COME ON CARLTON !!! ...

i have a question ...

if carlton win 4 this year and 4 next year ... do they still get the "1st pick" in 2008 as well ???

because thats 3 seasons with 4 wins each ???
