AFL Draft day has arrived, and what better way to build into the event than to chat about the comings and goings of round one, have your questions answered, and hear from a bunch of draftees in Rookie Me Central’s 2023 AFL Draft pre-show?

Tune in as host Peter Williams and AFL Draft analyst Michael Alvaro break down how night one might unfold, before the action gets underway. There’s plenty of permutations to cover; from bids, to bolters and sliders, live trades, and the players which will shape the draft.

Also featured are clips from this year’s National Draft Combine. There’s interviews with James Leake and Ashton Moir, a special ‘build your player segment’ and one very questionable Footy Grid build starring the top two prospects nationwide – Harley Reid and Jed Walter.
