FUTURE PICKS

This thread is for the 2027 Draft Order.

Through the trade period I will try and keep it as up to date as possible, but I am one person so please be patient.

I have also set up threadmarks on the round updates, and will do the same through the trade period as picks change hands. This allows you to put the thread in reader mode, only seeing updates, or to jump back and forth to particular trades that may be of interest. To access this feature please use the button at the top right corner of the thread.

Tag me if you notice anything that isn't quite right!

The AFL Commission has approved the list build concessions for the Tasmania Devils Football Club (TDFC) ahead of their entry into the Toyota AFL Premiership.

The concessions are as follows:

Flexible List Size

A flexible list size over their first five AFL seasons, allowing up to 48 players on the list maximum for years 2, 3 and 4 before transitioning back to industry levels by year 6.

Access to Existing AFL Talent

The ability to sign up to 18 out-of-contract AFL players across a 2-year window (covering the years immediately prior to TDFC entry year and TDFC entry year), with a maximum of one (1) player per Club in total.

Signing Bonus

Access to a signing bonus pool of $5,000,000 outside of the AFL Salary Cap, to be utilised over TDFC’s first two years (maximum spend of $3,000,000 in either year).

Expansion Compensation Model

A bespoke compensation model designed to compensate the existing 18 clubs for any loss of talent, with that compensation provided in the form of one or more ‘floating’ draft selections whereby the recipient Club may determine what year the selections fall in.

Tasmanian Academy

The provision of a Tasmanian Academy consistent with the Northern Academy model, with the ability to pre-list eligible Academy players for the first four (4) years before that access is reviewed prior to a transition to bidding system access.

Tasmanian Talent Access

Access to pre-list Tasmanian pathway players from two years prior to TDFC entry year in the AFL competition (i.e., players that are eligible to be drafted and play in the AFL in the year prior to TDFC entry year), with these players to participate in State League in the year prior to TDFC entry year. Ability to access players as Father-Son eligible where their father was born in Tasmania and played at least 100 AFL matches.

17-year-old Talent

The ability to pre-list players in their 17th year, spread across two years (year prior to the inaugural list build year = players eligible to play in TDFC entry year in AFL competition, and year of inaugural list build year = players eligible to play in TDFC second year in AFL competition).

17-year-old Mini-Draft

The provision of two (2) draft selections for two (2) Mini-Drafts of 17-year-old players (i.e, four selections in total – two each in years immediately prior to TDFC entry year and TDFC entry year), with the requirement for those picks to be traded. Players selected in the mini draft will not be eligible for AFL selection in the year immediately following the relevant mini draft.

Draft Capital

The provision of the following draft selections over three National Drafts:

in TDFC’s first National Draft ahead of their entry year, selections 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and the first selection of each subsequent round (noting that selections 5, 7, 11 and 13 must be traded but may be rolled forward for up to two National Drafts);

in TDFC’s second National Draft, selections 5 and 9 and the first selection in each subsequent round in addition to their natural draft hand (noting that selection 5 must be traded but may be rolled forward to the next National Draft); and

in TDFC’s third National Draft, selections 5 and 9 in addition to their natural draft hand (noting that selection 5 must be traded).

Previously Nominated Players

Access to directly pre-list players who have previously nominated for the National Draft but have not been selected or are not currently listed for the purposes of retention or trade.

Second Tier Assistance

Additional capacity to support their second-tier program.

Assuming Tasmania enter the league as scheduled in 2028, their list concessions will be as follows:

2027: Natural picks of the 19th team (i.e., the first pick in each round), plus picks 3, 5*, 7*, 9, 11* and 13*.
2028: Natural draft hand, the first pick in the second and subsequent rounds, plus picks 5* pick 9.
2029: Natural draft hand, plus picks 5* and 9.

*MUST be traded, and if not traded can be "rolled forward" to 2028 or 2029, but not beyond this.

For 2027, it looks like this:

It's like we have a new house on the block.

Thanks for this Lore (great work as normal)

If I can make a suggestion ... could the numbers in Tassie picks (5, 7, 11 & 13 which are tradable) be a different color to the picks (1, 3 & 9) which are not

this could save future questions from big footy fans :think:

on this tread about which picks are tradable

Lol.

Tassie with just a casual 12000 points worth of draft capital.
