These are some really odd draft selections.

Not really.

Small forward- need based
Gen defender- LLoyd is no spring chicken and the depth there is needed
Wing- need some genuine speed

What’s wrong with it?

We said it over and over again we didn’t rate tall options
 
Well we better hope Amartey and McLean turn out to be best 22, never get injured.

Ladhams never gets injured/suspended.

And unproven Gould or Francis are best 22, never get injured.

2024-25 might be a nervy couple of years. Don't know who is playing VFL though, won't have any depth.

Well the Grand Final shows we have a long way to go in the midfield. It wasn't our forwards or defenders that failed us on the biggest day of the year.
No doubt they have a long way to go. It's why only one midfielder in the last decade has won a premiership under 22 years of age. (And that was Bontempelli, who had it given to him.)
 
Are we purely just going for shock factor with picks? Not every pick has to be hail Mary kinnear, nothing wrong with taking a known quantity every once in a while
who exactly is a known quantity in a draft? here's a fact, not one of these players whether they're pick 1 or pick 200 have played a game at the highest level.

Arguably all three lines.

As far as I am concerned we had 2 good players.

Warner
Fox

The good news is we have two Warners.

Two Warners and Rowbottom blonde ambitions.

We didn't really need a small forward or even a winger. The two areas we are lacking is a big bodied mid and a KPD capable of taking on the 200cam forwards and we have addressed neither need the last two nights.
 

seems he only moved to the wing earlier this season. Prior to that he always played inside mid.

Kicking isn't great, and isn't too fast but he runs and runs for days. Sounds like we're taking a punt and hoping he develops

Bunch of young guys came up against hardened campaigners. Give it a few years and our young guys will be experienced, wily mids who hopefully will win us a flag. Just wasn't quite our time in 2022.
