FORMER Fremantle midfielder Josh Deluca is firming as the likely first selection ahead of Monday night's inaugural NAB AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft.

The Blues hold the first pick at the draft and have registered a significant interest in the diminutive 23-year-old Deluca, who played four AFL games for the Dockers in 2017.
