The list

Built on the AFL's rules

The draft, the bidding and free agency work the way the competition runs them.

  • Father-son and academy bidsRival clubs bid on your kids. You match with draft points, and a shortfall comes off next year's first pick.
  • Bids priced by the ladderThe higher you finish, the more a matched bid costs you.
  • Free-agency compensationLose a free agent and the pick you get back follows his new contract and his age.
  • Contracts and the capReal contract lengths, a salary cap, list sizes and Category B rookies.
