Welcome to Craft of the Draft's second AFL Mock Draft for 2025, with a total of 23 selections made in our latest prediction of how the first round of this year's count might unfold.

Our second edition Mock Draft follows the draft order changes from the trade period, while trading picks has also become an option should any club wish to move their selections.

This exercise also looks to deviate from our first Mock Draft with alternative selections where we see fit, creating a chain reaction of changes to show the potential ripple effect of these alterations.

Mitch's Picks: West Coast, Essendon, Hawthorn, Sydney, GWS, Geelong, North Melbourne, Port Adelaide
Jonty's Picks: Richmond, Gold Coast, St Kilda, Carlton, Western Bulldogs, Fremantle, Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Collingwood

The Giants add some clean kicking with the selection of the Geelong Falcons product, who could be the successor to All-Australian Lachie Whitfield.

With Whitfield 32 next year, GWS may look to find the supporting piece for Lachie Ash in the long run, with Lindsay proving to be a damaging half-back by foot.

The Vic Country talent is also capable of rolling through midfield, and could be positioned as an outside ball winner once Josh Kelly steps aside.
