I totally understand what you are saying. It’s just that I’ve heard the exact same things said about the current two worst sides in the AFL not too long ago.
...about the lower picks they've drafted and turned into consistent best 22 contributors since they became a finals team: Keidean Coleman, NoahAnswerth, Darcy Wilmot, Kai Lohmann etc. Then you look at how they've been able to develop those high end father-son picks into stars like Will Ashcroft...

Pros:
I think my team is very strong defensively, both tall and small. Between Weitering, Hough, Quaynor, Answerth down...
I only have six genuine defenders so my final pick is going to be Brisbane Lions premiership player NoahAnswerth. Very reliable and versatile player, can lock down or provide a bit of run if needed.
Will post my final team in a sec, slider95 up next.
Absurd that 4 premiership players are emergencies the game after a grand final, and another isnt in the best 26 (McKenna).
That's ignorning first round pick Sam Marshall, the guy who was leading our B&F at round 7 (Linc) and guys who have played very servicable footy for us recently - Shadeau...
For our best team it makes sense tbh.
Deodee will eventually take over from Frog, just a matter of when/if he can get his body right.
Smith is the most likely back up option here if we want a like for like replacement, or if Day isn't that good to cement a full spot.
Kiddy is back instantly...
...Like Doedee, Keidean Coleman will return from a ruptured ACL and is in the best team, but who he ultimately replaces is anyone's guess. NoahAnswerth proved a perfect defensive complement in September and would be mighty unlucky. Levi Ashcroft's addition forces another squeeze, and that's not...
He literally was shithouse and going into a season where Will Ashcroft, Kai Lohmann, NoahAnswerth were coming in. He also had the list manager himself surprised he didn’t leave… which isn’t a good sign for a guys decision
He played but they regretted doing so. If someone regrets playing you, I...

Sub: Cal Ah Chee

During the 3-peat, Gary O’Donnell used to speak of us having an A-grade bench. We once again have this...
NoahAnswerth is a lock IMO, he brings great balance to our back 7.
From the Grand Final side it's Conor McKenna out and Keidean Coleman in for me... who the sub should be is a dilemma.
Why the AFL didn't just get rid of the sub and go with 5 on the bench is nonsensical.

i don't think people are disputing the fact that you can find genuine superstars with late round selections, it's just that they are sceptical of collingwood being able to correctly identify a talented player in our pick range.
