Many of the top-end talents of the 2014 class have risen to become club leaders and competition superstars.
This updated draft sees some of the best players in the AFL join different teams and create many exciting scenarios. Will your club suffer or be better off with this re-arrange?
Here is the original 2014 first round:
- Paddy McCartin (St Kilda)
- Christian Petracca (Melbourne)
- Angus Brayshaw (Melbourne)
- Jarrod Pickett (GWS)
- Jordan De Goey (Collingwood)
- Caleb Marchbank (GWS)
- Paul Ahern (GWS)
- Peter Wright (Gold Coast)
- Darcy Moore (Collingwood - f/s)
- Nakia Cockatoo (Geelong)
- Liam Duggan (West Coast)
- Corey Ellis (Richmond)
- Lachie Weller (Fremantle)
- Jake Lever (Adelaide)
- Jarrod Garlett (Gold Coast)
- Sam Durdin (North Melbourne)
- Kyle Langford (Essendon)
- Isaac Heeney (Sydney - Academy)
- Blaine Boekhorst (Carlton)
- Jayden Laverde (Essendon)
- Hugh Goddard (St Kilda)
This draft features several academy/father-son picks i.e Heeney, Moore. These players will be drafted by the same original team at a potentially higher or lower pick depending on player value.
The draft order will hence be shifted for these adjustments; if Darcy Moore is judged the top pick of the class, Collingwood will move to pick 1 and the following teams will move down a spot.
Players will also be drafted based on team needs rather than purely the best available prospect.
4. Darcy Moore - Collingwood (original position - pick 9, father/son)
Originally picked by the Magpies in a father-son deal, Darcy Moore has provided excellent value for selection and is arguably a top-five player in his class. His 2022 finals series was a standout in Collingwood's fairytale run and he will look to lead the Magpies' back six through a potential premiership window.
This updated draft sees him climb up to Pick 4, where Collingwood matches a bid for him from GWS; an appropriate move as Moore has proven to be one of the more valuable defenders in the league.
