Yeah, drafting is luck, winning and coaching premierships is luck. Thank god Richmond is a lucky club and so many other clubs are unlucky!It's almost as though drafting is more good luck than anything else.

Spot on. I remember back in the days when we were always crap and the top teams would continue to 'unearth' star players from nowhere. It used to really *smile* me off. Now that it's us I'm loving it!
I don’t understand the priority pick. It’s reward for poor performance. Should be scrapped.
We never got 1 and we were compared to Fitzroy
Melbourne, Gc and now North are getting free picks.
Richmond got one in 2004 (Deledio), your posts remain as accurate as ever I see !!
No i dont think we did, also when Griffeths left, the both did it after the trade and draft week if i remember correctly.
I thought Deledio was the #1 pick we got for finishing last. The priority was #4 which we used on Tambling. At least that’s how I thought it worked.
AFL gave Melbourne concessions to get Roos to take the coaching job.
North get concessions to help get Clarkson to take the job.
Gold Coast got concessions cos they are the Gol;d Coast and the AFL's baby, no handouts too many for them.
Contrived BS,
We get the free agency concessions now and the upper draft hand for pre agency. Lynch for free is crazy when you think about it.
The 1st 3 picks in that 2004 draft were priority picks. Deledio, Roughead and Griffen.
Tambling was our “natural” 1st round pick, then Franklin, then Tom Williams
Yes but withoit the 3 piority picks we would have taken Delidio with our "natural" 1st round pick.
Therefore Tambling was the bonus player
No the priority picks are always used first, there was actually three that year I believe
I see Marc McGowan tweeted that Logie was choosing between us an Norf , however has now chosen Norf ..
If Norf get a priority for recruiting woefully, I think we should request a priority/compensation pick for the ARC screwing up our 2022 Premiership campaign, possibly some more cash space in the soft cap ?
