The 2024 AFL Draft is just days away, with all 18 clubs getting their affairs in order as they prepare to attain talent from this year's stacked class of prospects.

More than half of the competition have priority access to draft prospects they will look to add to their list via the Academy and father-son mechanisms, but further planning is in place to pry talent from the open pool.

The first round of the draft currently consists of 23 selections owned by just 12 clubs, with the six other sides hoping a particular teenager or two slides out of their projected draft range and into their lap.

Whether your team holds an early selection or doesn't start their count until night two of the draft, we've matched up an ideal prospect to all 18 clubs for their first selection of this year's AFL Draft.

For this exercise we have avoided double-ups, keeping all 18 selections to 18 different draft prospects.ย

Club:ย Old Brighton Grammarians

There's not much that needs to be said of Ashcroft that hasn't already been spoken.

The son of triple premiership player Marcus and the younger brother to 2024 Norm Smith Medal winner Will, Levi is a tantalising prospect for the Lions given he'll bring different strengths to what his older brother has so far in his short career.

Perhaps a long-term replacement for dual Brownlow Medal winner Lachie Neale, Ashcroft is viewed by many as the top prospect in this year's draft class after leading the Sandringham Dragons to a third successive flag - a run he was a part of entirely - as well holding an integral role in Vic Metro's undefeated carnival.
