Really happy with the volume of young high draft picks we've accumulated though. The raw numbers look pretty impressive (second only to the Giants).

We've had good numbers of high draft picks for many years now - and apart from a few seasons back, don't really have much joy to show for it.
The list at the bottom of that article is interesting. The teams listed between Carlton and Hawthorn (including the former, excluding the latter) have been ordinary the last few seasons.
