Welcome to Craft of the Draft's maiden Mock Draft for 2025, with a total of 23 selections made in a 'live' count of how opening night for this year's intake might unfold.
Matched bids for Academy and father-son draft prospects are included in the Mock Draft, as are the estimated landing spots for free agency compensation selections.
Matched bids for clubs have seen their subsequent selection(s) dissolve from the draft order, pending the timing of the bids.
The 14 clubs involved in the Mock Draft were split between Craft of the Draft analysts Jonty Ralphsmith and Mitch Keating.
Jonty's Picks - West Coast, Essendon, Hawthorn, Sydney, Fremantle, GWS and Geelong
Mitch's Picks - Richmond, Gold Coast, St Kilda, Carlton, Western Bulldogs, Adelaide and Brisbane
Not Involved - North Melbourne, Melbourne, Port Adelaide and Collingwood
Pick 21 - West Coast (AFL Assistance Package*): Mitch Marsh
| 19 RANK |  | Mitch Marsh West Adelaide Forward HEIGHT: 191cm | â–¶+ |
The fourth first-round pick for the Eagles, who again add to their front-half options with South Australian riser Marsh.
The 191cm forward led the goalkicking at this year's U18s National Championships, with his frame and agility often creating problems for his opponent.
Marsh's set shot routine looked faultless at times, with many of his scoring chances coming off the back of persistent forward movement and clean hands at the contest.
*The Eagles' selection was estimated to be placed ahead of band two free agency compensation selections for the exercise.
