Free agency

Compensation draft picks

The following compensation draft picks were dispensed to four clubs by the AFL based on all restricted and unrestricted free agency transfers during the initial transfer window:

  • Collingwood – First-round selection (pick 11)
  • Hawthorn – First-round selection (pick 19)
  • Melbourne – Second-round selection (pick 23)
  • St Kilda – Second-round selection (pick 25)

    • Trades

    Note: The numbering of the draft picks in this trades table is based on the original order at the time of the trade. The number of the pick may have changed due to the allocation of Free Agency compensation picks or clubs not using later picks.

    2013 national draft

    Following the completion of the free agency and trade periods, as well as the distribution of compensation picks to qualifying clubs, the final selection order for the 2013 National Draft was confirmed by the AFL on 18 November 2013.

  • Compensation picks are selections in addition to the normal order of selection, allocated to clubs by the AFL as compensation for losing uncontracted players to the new expansion clubs, Gold Coast and Greater Western Sydney. The picks can be held for up to five years and clubs declare at the beginning of the season of their intent to utilise the pick at the end of the season. Picks could be traded to other clubs in return for players or other draft selections.
  • Free agency compensation picks are additional selections awarded to teams based on their net loss of players during the free agency trade period.
  • Promoted rookies are players who are transferred from a club's rookie list to their primary list.
  • Local talent selections are local zone selections available to the new expansion clubs.
