Draft Rule Question

If during the trade period carlton and Judd cant come to an agreement and judd Puts himself into the pre season draft. Is there any rule that stops Carlton from using their No. 1 pick from picking Judd up in the draft and not pay West Coast anything?

No rule. But Carlton will lose Kreuzer (their preferred 1st pick) to Richmond.

In the Pre-Season Draft the clubs dont use the draft picks but are allowed to contract any uncontracted player provided they are willing to pay the player the requested contract terms. The 1st pick though will be Richmond followed by Carlton then Melbourne and so on. :lol:

 

Carlton don't have the number one pick in the pre-season draft and there is no chance he will enter the national draft.

No rule. But Carlton will lose Kreuzer (their preferred 1st pick) to Richmond.

or richmond will take judd at 1 in the preseason draft

No, but as others have said, Richmond has pick number one in the PSD.

Thank you for your help people. I am not too good on the drafting system :)

Pretty sure when a player hasn't been delisted, he is still under contract when the national draft takes place. Therefore he isn't eligable. But by the time the pre season draft comes around the contract is over and he is eligable. So in this case Juddy will still be contracted to West Coast when the national draft takes place

That's wrong because trade week is before the National draft. Nothing happens inbetween the national and pre-season dfrat so if what you're saying is true he is still contracted at the time of the PSD.

The players who are uncontracted but on the teams list before the the november national draft, cannot enter the draft but may enter the pre-season draft. The pre-season draft originally was in February and all contracts expired on the 31st of December. The AFL just moved the draft so players could do pre-season training with their desired clubs. The teams can also nominate players they are drafting in the pre-season draft provided the teams before them don't object to their selection. Hudson has requested to be traded to WB but if his trade does not eventuate WB has pick 4 in the pre-season draft, if Richmond, Carlton and Melbourne specify they will not draft him he can sign and train with WB after the November National draft, unless Adelaide delist him before the draft then any team can draft him with their picks. :rolleyes:

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
