The fact we still haven't drafted one gun mid with a top 5 pick, after 6 years of being near the bottom of the ladder, tells you everything you need to know about our drafting and our list build. All good sides are built around their midfield, the easiest way to bring in elite midfield talent is through the top end of the draft.Well we also messed up Galluci. And we lost two first round tips and whatever Tippet himself was worth. So that's at least 3 more.
And Mchenry.
And Cook and Jones and Milera I guess, but I have hope still with those guys.
So we've had what, like 15 first round picks in the last 12 years, 3 of which were taken away and 3 more are barf, and another 3 are dubious.
Go crows.
We haven't prioritised our midfield, but have somehow managed to ignore other areas of the team too (ruck, small forwards). Add all this to the Mcasey and Galluci first round disasters and it's hard to understand how we haven't changed our head recruiter in so long.
