GOLD Coast's three first-round picks are now locked in after the Western Bulldogs' exit from the finals series.

The Suns hold the Dogs' first-round selection this year after last year's trade that saw the Bulldogs trade up the board to select midfielder Ryley Sanders.

And after their loss to Hawthorn in Friday night's elimination final, the pick will land at No.12, adding to the Suns' own first-round pick (No.6) and their end-of-first round selection (No.20) that came from North Melbourne's assistance package last year.

The Suns will use one or more of the selections to prise Daniel Rioli out of Richmond. 

The exits of the Bulldogs and Carlton in the opening weekend of the finals goes a step closer to locking in the full draft order ahead of the 2024 Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period

Carlton will go into the trade window holding pick No.11 after its loss to Brisbane on Saturday night.

The remaining six teams' draft positions – and any potential picks tied to their finishing places in the hands of other clubs – will be decided over the next three weeks.

Fremantle will be barracking against Port Adelaide this week in the semi-final against Hawthorn, with the Dockers holding the Power's first-round selection this year. It would give the Dockers a draft hand of pick nine, 10 (tied to Collingwood) and 13 or 14.
