The countdown to the 2025 AFL Draft has reached the final week, so as we near this year's exciting intake, we've covered how the first round of picks might play out - for the second time!
This exercise follows our first edition Mock Draft from last month, with our second edition assessing alternative selections for a range of clubs and including live trades to showcase the ripple effect of those changes.
This draft includes a total of 27 first-round selections, with four matched bids expected to fall on night one of the AFL Draft, while we've also predicted one live trade to take place.
So, without further ado, here isย Zero Hanger'sย second edition AFL Mock Draft for 2024.
25. Pick 25 - GWS: Harrison Oliver
Oliver's 1st Mock Draft Selection:ย Unselected
GWS' 1st Mock Draft Selection:ย Jack Whitlock
Position:ย Defender
Height:ย 181cm
State:ย Victoria
Club:ย St Bedes/Mentone
Another unselected draftee who finds a first-round spot in our second Mock Draft, with the uber-competitive Oliver, the type of player who Adam Kingsley would quickly be fond of given his leadership traits and accountability.
Oliver is a damaging half-back with a balance of being a good distributor and a lockdown option for the opposition's best small forwards.
With Lachie Whitfield and Lachie Ash the more attacking outlets, Oliver could be a nice addition to the Giants' backline in the years ahead.
