EXPANSION club Geelong will have the first two picks in this year's NAB AFL Women's Draft, plus a further two at the top of the second round.
North Melbourne, which came away from last week's expansion club signing period with a 17-player haul, will have the last selection in each round.
The AFL granted the concession picks to the Cats – who came away from the expansion signing period with 13 players – to enable them to match North's haul.
'UNDERHAND' Lions livid with North's list build
Foundation clubs that lost players to the Roos and Cats have also been allocated compensation picks for the draft, likely to be held in mid-October.
Collingwood will pick at the start of the second round, Western Bulldogs at the start of the third round, Melbourne at the start of the fourth round, and Carlton at the start of the fifth round. Brisbane has been allocated two extra spots for its rookie list, while Greater Western Sydney has been given one extra rookie spot.
IRREPLACEABLE The players your AFLW club can ill-afford to lose
In allocating extra picks, the AFL said it had made its decisions based on factors including collective value of players lost and whether the loss of players would damage a club enough to compromise competitive balance.
"As part of this process, AFLW lists were profiled when establishing the agreed four-tier payment model. The combined loss of players for each club then provided an indication of the total impact of the expansion signing period and foundation clubs are to be compensated relative to the total value of players they have lost," the AFL said in a statement.
"In doing so, the AFL reserves the right to alter the 2018 draft selection order or take any other approach to maintain competitive balance throughout the expansion process."
The sign and trade period runs from May 23-June 4.
