The AFLW draft remains a key event for teams to add youth talent as the competition continues to evolve, with coverage typically focusing on top prospects, club-by-club lists, and live results from the night of the draft. The 2024 Telstra AFLW Draft was the first fully national draft in the competition’s history, allowing all nominees to be selected by any club, regardless of state. This shift influenced how clubs planned their picks and traded for assets ahead of the draft night.[2]

Coverage usually includes: dates and times, where to watch (live streams and app coverage), notable picks from across the country (including academy and state-level talents), and post-draft lists or “ins and outs” for each club. For example, media outlets and club sites provide draft previews, streaming details, and selections by round or pick number.[3][6][2]

For up-to-date specifics on the current year’s draft (latest picks, trades, and club-by-club lists), check sources that publish real-time results and club announcements during the event, such as AFLW official channels and major AFL media outlets. These sources typically post live updates and post-draft summaries immediately after selections are made.[4][2]
