WEST COAST utility Quinten Lynch has scoffed at suggestions the Eagles will be better served by losing the last three games of the AFL season to qualify for a priority pick in the NAB AFL Draft.

The Eagles notched their fourth win of the season on Sunday with an upset 10-point triumph over Essendon, meaning a win or a draw against either Melbourne, Hawthorn or Geelong in the final three rounds would see the club miss out on a priority pick in the November draft.

Only clubs that record four wins or fewer in a season are eligible for the priority pick, but Lynch said concessions in the draft was the last thing on the team's mind.

"We are elite sportsmen and very competitive," Lynch said on Monday.

"You can't play table tennis in there without a $20 bet being put down, so worrying about where we are going to finish and how many games we finish doesn't even come into the thought process.

"We are out there to win footy games.

"The enjoyment you see on the boys' faces there this morning after winning the game ... how can you tell them to lose? It's a ridiculous thought."
