Draft order: where does your AFL club sit?
DRAMA is building as clubs plot their moves in the hope of landing the best available talent in the 2019 AFL national draft.
Four trades were completed last week, including Melbourne trading away a top-10 pick, and Collingwood and Brisbane agreeing to a swap of second and third round picks.
The Giants have jumped up the order after a deal with Adelaide and now hold pick 4.
The Crows dropped two spots in the top 10 but landed the Giants' first pick next year in the deal.
Meanwhile, Hawthorn traded pick 30 to North Melbourne for picks 50, 73 and a future second round pick, while Port Adelaide has swapped a host of picks with Brisbane that give the Power three selections in the first round next week.
But clubs are still unsure how the draft will play out, with more trades likely during the event and bids set to come early for highly rated academy and father-son players.
GWS hopes to land two of the best six kids in the draft, hoping a bid doesn't come too early for inside bull Tom Green. Fremantle is also hoping there is no early bid for Liam Henry while the Hawks are expected to match a bid for father-son selection Finn Maginness.
Geelong and Fremantle are also keen to move up the draft order.
See how the draft stands below and all the details of this year's event.
