Preview How many picks will your side take into the 2025 draft?

[Miguel Sanchez]

Back again because one guy asked. Feel free to provide updates and/or correct any mistakes I've made. It's getting harder and harder to keep track of this because for some reason the AFL and clubs don't tend to publicise rookie upgrades these days.

Adelaide
Starting list size: 38
Out: 5 (Crouch, Smith retired, Murphy, Strachan, Welsh delisted)
In: 0 (but Borlase probably has to be promoted?)
Current senior list: 33 players
Current rookies: 3 Cat A (Borlase, McAndrew, TMurray) + will redraft Walsh
Live picks: 5 (16, 48, 55, 64, 73) - will hold one over for Ah Chee in the PSD

Brisbane
Starting list size: 36
Out: 7 (Day, Big O retired, Starcevich traded, McCarthy, Robertson, Ryan delisted, Ah Chee will delist himself)
In: 2 (Allen, Draper FAs)
Current senior list: 31 players
Current rookies: 5 Cat A (Beecken, Joyce, Lester, McKenna, McLachlan) + 3 Cat Bs (Brain, Reville, Murphy) - someone will have to switch to Cat A, plus McCarthy redrafted so at least one player must be promoted
Live picks: 5 (17, 23, 44, 51, 59) - but I'm guessing someone will be promoted which would take away the last pick.

Carlton
Starting list size: 36
Out: 9 (Docherty retired, Curnow, De Koning, Silvagni, Durdin traded/FA, Binns, Fantasia, Hollands, Lemmey delisted)
In: 5 (Ainsworth, Chesser, Florent, Hayward, Reidy trade)
Current senior list: 32 players

Current rookies: 5 Cat A (Howes, Long, Smit, Steele, Sullivan) + 1 Cat B (Parke
Live picks: 5 (39, 45, 56, 61, 77) - may just take two, promote someone and go in with 36 again

Essendon

Out: 8 (Draper FA, Davey, Goldstein, Hobbs, Laverde, Lual, Setterfield, Shiel delisted)
In: 1 (Fiorini trade)

In: 1 (Worpel FA)
Current senior list: 35 players
Current rookies: 1 Cat A (Pike) + 2 Cat B (Burke, Mullin) plus will redraft Stevens and Matofai-Forbes

Gold Coast

Live picks: 7 (15, 18, 24, 28, 29, 36, 52) - probably only take 5 after those picks are used up on bids

GWS
Starting list size: 37
Out: 3 (Ward retired, Stone, Stringer delisted)
In: 1 (Oliver trade)
Current senior list: 35 players
Current rookies: 1 Cat A (Wardius) + 2 Cat B (Madden, Delana) + Stringer and Stone to be rerookied and Laverde as an SSP
Live picks: 3 (12, 35, 91) - probably upgrade Madden or Wardius

Current senior list: 32 players
Current rookies: 7 Cat A (Cochrane, Evans, Lai, Liddy, Mackinlay, Ramm, Walsh) + 2 Cat B (Barrett, Moss) - will have to promote at least one, may promote up to four

In: 2 (Starcevich, Young trade/FA)
Current senior list: 32 players
Current rookies: 5 Cat A (Brock, Dewar, Hutchinson, McCarthy, Newton) + 1 Cat B (Champion) - but Dewar I believe has to be upgraded. Also have four extra rookie spots thanks to the AFL taking pity on how terrible we are. Robertson will take one of them as an SSP signing

[Stamos]

Carlton have 4 picks but will likely take 3 and elevate a Rookie.

 

[Bletch]

Can confirm Carlton's numbers are correct.

Cincotta and Will White were also removed from the Rookie list, which was over-subscribed by 2 (via SSP/MSD picks).

 

[eth-dog]

Essendon correct.

 

[blueiris]

Brisbane has 4 live picks and Bruucee to be elevated

 

[weltschmerz]

I think O'Donnell needs to be upgraded to the main list and we'll have three list spots, so two live picks and matching a bid on Will Darcy.

 

[Bletch]

iirc, rookie upgrades don't affect the number of lives picks taken to the draft.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Geelong are correct will take 2 and upgrade mullin-are likely hoping mellor gets through to the cat b rookie spot.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

iirc, rookie upgrades don't affect the number of lives picks taken to the draft.

Teams have to take three picks, but that can include rookie upgrades.

And there’s a maximum of 38 spots on the senior list, so any rookies upgraded take away a live pick.

 

[Bletch]

Yes, but it doesn't affect the number of picks taken TO the draft (only the number used IN the draft). Right?

Brisbane

Out: 7 (Day, Big O retired, Starcevich traded, McCarthy, Robertson, Ryan delisted, Ah Chee will delist himself)
In: 2 (Allen, Draper FAs)
Current senior list: 31 players

Live picks: 5 (17, 23, 44, 51, 59) - but I'm guessing someone will be promoted which would take away the last pick.

Basically we will take 5 live picks to the draft.

There is a belief the last two will be use to upgrade both Reville and Brain form Car B's to the senior list. So we'll take draft three kids, upgrade Reville & Brain, redraft McCarthy to the senior list, giving us 6 Cat A rookies, and Murphy added as a Cat B rookie, giving us one available Cat B rookie that we can add an undrafted academy kid as a prelisted kid.

Pick who ever from Prindable, Waller and Bridge who doesn't get drafted in the ND.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Yes, but it doesn't affect the number of picks taken TO the draft (only the number used IN the draft). Right?

Oh you’re right, I forgot players can be upgraded after the draft now

 

[MakeshiftMartyr]

Essentially Fremantle will be looking to use their first two picks, Sharp and Draper will move up to the mainlist. We've committed to Toby Whan and Ryda Luke, so it's just whether they end up on the main list or rookies.

 

[ex afl players]

Thanks a lot work here!!! Adelaide will have 34 they traded in Malley from the kangaroos and is Parker still on collingwoods rookie list ?

St Kilda
Starting list size: 38
Out: 7 (Webster retired, Heath, Steele traded, Byrnes, Cordy, Jones, Schoenmaker delisted)
In: 4 (De Koning, Flanders, Ryan, Silvagni traded/FA)
Current senior list: 35 players
Current rookies: 2 Cat A (Caminiti, Hall) + 3 Cat B (Armstrong, O'Connell, McDonald) - someone will have to switch to Cat A
Live picks: 3 (50, 65, 86) - probably upgrade Caminiti with the third one

50 will probably be Fincher, our NGA.
65 + 86 will be re-drafting Ryan Byrnes and upgrading Caminiti.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Cal Twomey has posted the draft order and the rookie upgrades. I’ll go through at some point and see how close I got.

Draft order:



Rookie upgrades (noting more can follow after the draft):

 

[Danog]

Richmond will likely use 3, 4, 38, Kellaway match with 68, and upgrade Campbell

Retain pick 2 in rookie draft or have a train-on spot

Borlase doesnt have to be promoted as we delisted him and picked him up again just last year on a 2year Rookie contract. So he can go for another year.

I am not sure what we are doing as Ogilvie said we may just use two picks so maybe McAndrew or Borlase to get upgraded.

You might redraft Welsh to the senior list with the third pick, then pass on the fourth pick for Ah Chee.
