Sorry if this is an obvious question, but is there a summary history year-by-year of the draft selection order.
Either earned (ie before trade week) or negotiated (after trade week) would be great.
I could put this together in a day but of course, reinventing the wheel and all that...
Thanks in advance

Wikipedia hace a year by year run down for every year since 97 and a few other seasons

Thanks for the link.
For the record I am establishing a statistical analysis of the AFL draft system (from a player and club perspective) to identify the relative value of low vs high draft picks, pre-season draft vs national draft, interstate vs intra-state moves, age, moving to a bottom 4 club vs top 4 club, club performance vs draft pick mix, amongst other things.
The intent is to understand (statistically) what the sensitivities are in these areas, thereby providing independent guidance to clubs as to what (historically) is a statistically important difference as opposed to an anecdotal one.
The database is now statistically significant (this year being the 21st year of the draft) to make these findings valuable.

why wouldnt you just use the model that is used in the NFL - sure, we have half the teams, so the 32 team model gets split to two rounds.
This is how the values work;

Not as many players taken in our draft, so there is possibly an argument that scarcity isnt factored in enough, but risk certainly is, and draft position should be a good indication of the relative risk v reward (at least before the draft) of each pick.

Be careful though .... a quick inspectionof some old Port information showed a couple errors (Josh Carr was not picked at pick 7 by Fremantle back in 98 but by Port) Adam Morgan was not traded for Luke Peel etc.

If that is the case, then you should update it.... The Josh Carr one has been updated, not sure of the details on the other one, so you should do that
