Cookie....if I had the answers I guess it'd be me doing the review!!!
On top of those kids we drafted in that period, we've topped up with blokes from other clubs who were also pretty high draft picks....some of whom Thryleon alluded to. Includes Plowman, Marchbank, Setterfield and Kennedy from GWS. Of those, Plowman has probably been the best...which would surprise most. Marchbank has played 48 games in 7 seasons of footy and doesn't seem able to stay out there. Kennedy probably saved his spot with that game last week....and Setterfield is in and out of the team as well.
Add to those the Martin/McGovern trades and it makes for ordinary reading across the board. And that doesn't take into account the high end draft picks from about 2016 onwards who are all in and out of the team and who have question marks on them....Dow, O'Brien, SPS etc.
That's a lot of questionable decisions spread over the best part of a decade.
