We also get a dip for our rookie zone selections.
From the CBA:
Category B – includes former NSW or International Scholarship players with that Club, Academy players (only with respect to Sydney Swans, Brisbane Lions, Gold Coast Suns and GWS Giants), International Rookies (including 1 x Irish), Non-Registered or not Played for 3 Years, Sydney and Queensland Based Clubs and Alternate Talent Players.
From the AFL Rules:
10.4 NSW and Queensland Based Clubs
(a) A Club which is based in the New South Wales or Queensland area may include a Player or Players on its Rookie List during the period between the conclusion of the Pre-Season Draft Selection Meeting and the commencement of the Rookie Draft Selection Meeting, by lodging with the AFL the form prescribed in Schedule 1 as Form 34 provided that the following requirements are fulfilled:
(i) the Player must not have previously been listed on a Rookie List or Primary List;
(ii) the Player must be resident in New South Wales or the Australian Capital Territory in the case of a Club based in New South Wales or Queensland in the case of a Club based in the Queensland, and have been so resident for a continuous period of 3 years immediately prior to the date on which he is included;
(iii) by the date nominated by the AFL prior to the Pre-Season Draft Selection Meeting, the Club must provide to the AFL written evidence of the Club’s and Player’s agreement to be listed as a Rookie. That agreement must specify that the Player can and will only be listed on the Club’s Rookie List if he is not selected by any Club at the PreSeason Draft Selection Meeting; and
(iv) if the Player is ultimately included on the Club’s Rookie List, the Club and the Player must, as soon as is practicable, enter into a Contract of Service and lodge that and any other requested documents with the AFL.
