2024 AFL Draft: All picks traded between clubs, who has the greatest hand?

A massive number of future picks changed hands during the trade and draft periods. Where did it leave your club? See who you should barrack against in 2024.

Gold Coast will again shape next year’s AFL draft first round, while Fremantle remains in position to make a splash after future trading settled this week.

Richmond only used two picks – Kane McCauliffe at No. 40 and Liam Fawcett at No. 43 – in the draft this week but shrewd trading on Tuesday night has the Tigers holding an extra round two and two bonus round three choices next year.

The Tigers twice dropped down the order on Tuesday in exchange for round three picks from Fremantle and West Coast.

Hawthorn picked up fourth rounders from Carlton and Sydney during the draft to add to next year’s hand.

The Dockers will enter next season with three first rounders in the kitty, their own and choices from Collingwood and Port Adelaide.

Should either the Pies or Power slip down the ladder – like Richmond did in 2023 to bolster GWS’ draft hand – Fremantle could enjoy a huge list rejuvenation.

The Suns will have plenty to play with at the draft or in next year’s trade period, holding first rounders from the Western Bulldogs and one of North Melbourne’s picks that will sit at the end of the round.

A bonus second rounder could be crucial in landing academy talent Leo Lombard.

Carlton did its wheeling and dealing before the draft, ensuring the Blues have pick points to call upon for highly-rated father-son twins Ben and Lucas Camporeale.

“Those boys showed great improvement this year from where they were at the start of the year and if they do that again, we will have to see where they sit,” Blues list boss Nick Austin said.

“We went after some future fourths in our trade period just to get ready. We don’t know how high they will go. They are tracking nicely, so we will have to wait and see.”

The Camporeale brothers have trained at Carlton already and will spend another week at Ikon Park over pre-season.

“We have to be careful about how often we are bringing them across and how much we put on their plate but any chance we have that fits in their schedule we will certainly be looking to do that,” Austin said.

While Port Adelaide, Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs will nervously hope trading their first round pick doesn’t bite them in 2024, Geelong is the only club without a future pick in or out the door.

The biggest future prize of all went unsold on Monday, when West Coast hoped to off-load its future first – which based on this year’s ladder would have been the No. 1 pick – to get Daniel Curtin but couldn’t tempt GWS or Adelaide.
