The draft itself starts at 7pm (AEST)

The draft order for the mid-season rookie draft is the reverse ladder order after Round 11, with the number of picks dependent on the number of open list spots. (Spots opened up as LTIs/retirees are put on the inactive list.)

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Crows sign Murray so there goes that spot.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Hawks will have one space opening up with the impending retirement of Patton.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Hawks will have one space opening up with the impending retirement of Patton.

This'll probably see the inclusion of Jackson Callow I reckon.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

This'll probably see the inclusion of Jackson Callow I reckon.

I wouldn’t think we’d do that at this stage.

Reckon we’d keep it open.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Crows sign Murray so there goes that spot.

While Essendon signed Kaine Baldwin.

 

[Sphynx]

How is the order selected, is it last years order or is it ladder at the time?

Reverse ladder after around round 10 or 11.

I wouldn’t be surprised if 18th and 17th got two genuine top 30 prospects out of it.

 

[Davo-27]

Crows sign Murray so there goes that spot.

"Murray from the Murray" got a spot on an AFL list, good on him.

Kaine Baldwin also got on a list, Luke Parks got picked up in last years draft

its weird seeing guys you liked get opportunities a year or 3 after they fail to get drafted, feel good stories.

 

[Jen2310]

Looks like collingwood going into the mid-season draft with 2 spots.

Shocked me by passing on Briskey today.

 

[briztoon]

Well we have a spot open now.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Well we have a spot open now.

Is the ACL rupture confirmed?

 

[briztoon]

Is the ACL rupture confirmed?

Pretty much.

Have the under 18 Nab cup teams been finalised? Do we have a list of overage players who may be eligible for the mid season draft?

 

[The Nostradamus]

Eggmolesse-smith has signed on with tigers before the deadline

is there an update on who has a spot left for mid season draft

north have 1
think pies have 1
Hawks have 1
Lions will have 1 once they move Rayner to the LTI
Saints will have 1 when they move Paton to LTI
swans the only other team with 1?

Soldo might go in the LTinjury list but probably not.

Sounds like his recovery is going ok

Pies have 2 spots.

Against my displeasure, they didn't sign the train on player, Briskey.

Banking salary cap space maybe
having a few less than the max list numbers

As the mid-season draft gets closer, expect these numbers to change a bit with some list maneuvering. Has there been any change to the rules regarding mid season draftees and contract length to avoid another Cody Hirst type scenario

Tyson Stengle about to be delisted next week and Wayne Milera will be going on the LTI if we see a prospect that's too good to pass on. So the Crows with 2 spots likely opening up.

Saints could have 3 come draft time.

Had 3 post national draft, added 2 players (Wood and Hunter) but then Robbo retirement and Paton's long term injury opens up 2 more spots.

Definitely. This list will definitely change between now and June.

Nope. Rookies on base wage are outside the cap.

Gen Patton is finished from all the available info. So we've got 1 space....just not announced as yet.

yeah I figure that will happen. I'm just going on officially right now. Clearly this list will change rapidly over the next few months.
