Is there bidding and matching in the AFLW draft? I didn’t think there were any zones per se (apart from the concessions for the most recent expansion sides). Just the (optional) state-based nomination system.

Not like the men’s, they don’t use the DVI

The hope is that next year it may well be a full national, with pay increasing to $67k for the 2025 AFLW season, plus players get initial relocation costs covered.

It also helps out in fair market value too. For example as it stands in Queensland who have a number of top prospects, other teams can bid on players, and they can match, but if they nominate for Queensland, then only the other Queensland team can bid (and usually they've got an unspoken agreement to take their respective players). Evie Long nominating nationally is a huge coup for the comp, would have been great to see more, but it's a good first step.

I don’t mind that Evie Long character…

Aren't there two Queensland zones? I could have sworn that was a thing.

National draft can't come soon enough, AFAIC. It feels like we dodged a bullet with the Tassie girls nominating nationally. Probably the same with Grigg. The Lions having the first pick in QLD as well as their own plus access to academy kids feels like a mistake. Probably should have considered ladder position when handing out comp, especially since they delayed long enough to actually do so.

FD is still implemented badly, but at least the bidding system is better. Also, it's less counterintuitive than stockpiling picks in the 30s and 40s like in the men's. I'm still trying to wrap my head around Robertson nominating nationally after nominating FD, though.

There was a Gold Coast zone (as part of the expansion) and if a Queensland player nominates nationally, the Academies can match a bid. But if they nominate Queensland the other teams can’t bid.

I’ve heard Robertson was hoping to go to Sydney by the sounds of it, as that’s where her partner was, but then she got delisted…

So, possibly, Robertson nominated nationally before agreeing to go FD to Carlton? Or was she hoping that Sydney would put in a bid that Carlton wouldn't match? I think I should probably just give up on figuring this one out. Probably not important that I know. It just seems weird to nominate to go anywhere while also nominating to go to one specific team.

I may just be tired, but I think the explanation of what the system is in QLD has me more confused than before. They may implement a national draft before I figure it out. Here's hoping.

I don't think anyone is meant to understand the draft system to be fair. Literally some recruiting teams were in the dark over some rules. Like initially many believed Tassie and NT players could pick a state they wanted to go to (like how some have gone to QLD and NSW in past years) but then they found out it was North/GC or national.

I too hope for a national draft because that is far simpler 😂

Thank you so much for this brilliant list Pie 4 Life ! There are a couple of conspicuous omissions. Please can you tell us what the deal is for Jess Vukic and Kayley Kavanagh? They haven't been pre-listed have they?

Jess Vukic was by Hawthorn. Kayley Kavanagh was an oversight on my list, the only one I missed. She nominated nationally.
