Our AFL Rookie Rankings have seen a change ato the podium after Round 13, while a young Brisbane forward has broken into the top seven for the first time this year.

He replaces outgoing Magpies midfielder Lachie Sullivan and lands at sixth in our rankings, pushing a young Hawks tall down one place.

Tigers pair Kane McAuliffe and Seth Campbell have both earned honourable mentions for their efforts in Thursday's win over Adelaide, while Crows debutant Billy Dowling also gets a nod for his performance in the same game.

Selection Criteria:ย For ourย Rookie Rankings, we are ONLY selecting players who have made their debut this season.

Other players who may still be eligible for a Rising Star nomination but have already made their debut before the 2024 season will not be considered. I.e. Rising Star eligible players such as George Wardlaw, Angus Sheldrick and Sam Darcyย are ineligible, having already played anย AFL match before Round 1, 2024.ย 

Honourable Mentions:
Kane McAuliffe (Richmond)
Billy Dowling (Adelaide)
Seth Campbell (Richmond)

4. Sam Clohesy (-)

Saturday night's outing made it consecutive quiet performances for the Suns' mature-aged recruit, who could begin to slip from the top four if his form continues.

Clohesy recorded 288 metres gained from his 13 possessions against the Saints in what was a tough finish for Damien Hardwick's men.

The Suns are scheduled for a bye this week before a return game in Perth against Fremantle in Round 15.
