With the dust settling on another draft period, AFL clubs and their new recruits begin to turn their attention toward pre-season training in preparation for the 2023 season.
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.
Western Bulldogs
Harvey GallagherÂ
The Bulldogs moved on Bendigo Pioneers utility Harvey Galagher with their third and final pick in the National Draft and are sure to see the immediate signs of a formidable AFL player.
Gallagher developed into a goal-kicking and attacking midfielder for the Pioneers but was overlooked at last year's draft and this year's mid-season intake.
After moving to a half-back flank for the second half of the 2022 NAB League, Gallagher flourished with his ball-winning ability and run and carry from defence.
A spot at half-back or up on the wing, which has now been vacated by Lachie Hunter's departure, might be there for the taking for Gallagher.
