Some clubs have already injected their new wave of young stars into their programs for the summer ahead, while others will require longer development plans before earnign their debut in the top flight.
With some players brought in to have an immediate impact and others seen as project players for the future, we list the draftee at each AFL club that could land a debut in Round 1, 2023.
North Melbourne
The Roos' top pick is set to be among the favoured names for the 2023 Rising Star Award, with his eye for goal and overall forward craft key reasons the Ajax forward is so highly rated.
North Melbourne's forward line is far from complete, with Nick Larkey still needing a parter to help share the key-positon workload, while Cam Zurhaar looms as their best threat at ground level.
Sheezel can add to Zurhaar's cunning ability in the forward third of the field and also has a remarkable;e ability to take flight, with the Sandringham product a near certainty to be in the mix for Round 1 next year.
