Please find attached the selections made at today’s NAB AFL Pre-Season Draft and NAB AFL Rookie Draft, which were both held as electronic drafts. 

The AFL wishes to advise that the name of GWS Giants pre-listed rookie Joe Redfern was not read out at today’s rookie draft. Redfern’s paperwork as an Academy player was submitted by his club last week but was not confirmed as received by the AFL until today. He has therefore been included in the official Rookie selection order advised to all clubs today, as the final available selection of the GWS Giants at pick number 51.

The attached Rookie Draft order has been revised to reflect the number of live selections that were made today, after the conclusion to the Pre-Season Draft. For any media unclear as to why these changes are made to the order of Rookie Draft selections, each selection taken in the Pre-Season Draft results in the removal of a selection from the Rookie Draft, and therefore this finalised order reflects all selections made today.
