Finally, a flag for a club that hasn't ever bottomed out?

Would be very deserving. Havent received a plethora of first round picks on a silver platter like others, and have lost some handy players along the journey.

Long way to go still, but would love to see them (or Richmond) win it from here.

The Crows player development, and their ability to recover from the loss top quality players, has been outstanding.

Doesnt every team get a first round draft pick every year?

Without going into it too much, but what happened to the draft picks through the last decade when you did finish bottom 10?
Wasn’t that when the expansion clubs came in?

2005-2009 crows made finals every year. Since then there have been either expansion picks or compensation picks polluting the draft

Dangerfield (pick 10) / Davis (pick 10) / Gold Coast concession / GWS concessions / Academy/ Father-Son live bidding


Edit: Just looked it up and in 2011 Crows traded pick 10 & their Phil Davis end of first Round compo pick for Luke Brown & Brad Crouch

so I guess we could put an asterix on Crouch
