Smedts was a first round pick, Plowman went at 3, Pickett at 4, Jaksch, Sumner and Wiley were all high picks as well.
Other clubs cut their losses and we pick up the pieces.
I don't dispute that, but we have a malaise that affects the entire club. We've tried 1001 coaches, we have more 1st rounders than GWS (and have had over the last 10 years), we've had expensive messiahs, dirt cheap rookie rejects etc., and we are still in a fug - both mens teams and both womens teams are terrible.
Turning this around requires a massive effort from the whole club - no point whining about Bolton, or Fraser or Murphy etc. One or two or three people won't fix this.
