The priority selection breakdown allows Carlton, Collingwood, Melbourne, the Western Bulldogs and Fremantle to pre-sign one player who has an association with the club. Adelaide and the Brisbane Lions can each pre-sign two players, while Greater Western Sydney has the option of four.
The eight clubs also can each list two rookies (players new to the code or who have not been registered in organised football competition over the past three seasons).
The rest of the clubs' player lists will be completed at the AFL women’s draft in mid-October.
Lethlean confirmed the Giants and Dockers would each be granted an additional priority selection to compensate for long-term knee injuries to their respective marquee players, Renee Forth and Kiara Bowers.
