The 2024 AFL Draft is now less than a month away, so as it approaches we've begun to look at who each club could select in the first round of the count with our first Mock Draft of the year.
A total of 23 selections shared by a dozen different clubs currently make up this year's opening round of picks, while priority-tied prospects are likely to see the number of selections balloon out following matched bids.
Richmond currently hold seven first-round selections, including the prized Pick 1, while St Kilda, Melbourne, GWS and Sydney also have multiple spots in the queue early into the draft.

We've looked at how each first-round selection might unfold and offer some insight into the top draft stars your club could recruit come November 20.
This exercise does not include predicted live trading, with the draft order to remain as it currently reads, with the exception being matched bids for father-son or Academy prospects.ย
Following Mock Drafts will be published closer to the AFL Draft, looking at alternative outcomes and will include live trades.ย
15. Pick 15 - West Coast: Bo Allan
Position:ย Midfielder-Defender
Height:ย 191cm
State:ย Western Australia
Club:ย Halls Head
Western Australia's leading prospect for 2024, Allan will be right in the sights of the Eagles after they moved back from Pick 3 during the trade period.
There's a good chance the WA captain is off the board by the time West Coast are on the clock, but in this exercise he finds his way to Lathlain Park at Pick 15.
Allan couldn't have done much more in 2024, playing a leading role for his state in a difficult carnival - averaging 20 disposals, 3.7 clearances, 6.3 score involvements and 6.0 tackles from his trio of appearances.
He capped off his campaign with a WAFL flag, having played 11 games for Peel Thunder on their way to the premiership, with the youngster proving to be a viable option through midfield and in defence as a medium-sized option.
