The AFL has announced that no priority picks will be awarded in 2015.
Both Carlton and Brisbane requested a priority pick from the AFL, however, both clubs have had their requests denied.
While the Blues and Lions finished at the bottom of the ladder, the AFL Commission ruled that it did not constitute 'exceptional circumstances' for an extra draft pick.
