Over 180 players have nominated for next week's Mid-Season Draft, with AFL clubs set to assess the pool of available talent that includes local league players, state league hopefuls and past top-flight footballers.
Nominations to enter the May 31 count are required to be lodged by this Wednesday, while players have the option to nominate for 18-month contracts or for just the six months.
According to CODE Sports, 29 of the 183 draft nominations so far have lodged longer-term deals should they get drafted, with potential No.1 pick Ryan Maric, Eastern Ranges ruckman Clay Tucker and Richmond VFL talent Luke Teal among those looking to earn contracts until the end of 2024.
The first wave of nominees also includes an array of ex-AFL talent looking for another chance at the elite level, with former Cat Quinton Narkle, ex-Swan Ryley Stoddart and delisted Collingwood defender Jack Madgen all among the initial list of nominees.
Five clubs currently have open list spots, with Hawthorn (two), Geelong, the Western Bulldogs, Fremantle and Essendon each holding over positions from the Supplemental Selection Period during the pre-season.
Richmond will be able to open a list spot and enter the draft following Jason Castagna's retirement in February, while West Coast (Jai Culley), GWS (Darcy Jones and Adam Kennedy), Sydney (Sam Reid), Port Adelaide (Mitch Georgiades) and North Melbourne (Brayden George) could all add to their squads by moving players to their inactive list due to long-term injury.
The draft will be held remotely on Wednesday, May 31, with clubs able to open list spots until the day before the count. The draft order will be determined by the reverse ladder order after Round 11.
