Western Jets midfielder Montana Ham was plucked with the first overall selection in the 2022 AFLW National Draft, landing the first spot in the class of New South Wales-eligible prospects and joining Sydney.
The Keilor product was joined by fellow Victorian Sofia Hurley in venturing north of the border to join the Swans after nominating to be recruited from NSW clubs.
Hawthorn collected Jasmine Fleming with their first selection at Pick 2 overall, the opening pick among Victorian clubs, before Hannah Ewings followed in joining Port Adelaide as a South Australian selection.
Essendon's first selection in the draft came at fourth overall and second for Victorian clubs,ย adding Amber Clarke from the Dandenong Stingrays before the Swans rounded out the top five selections in recruiting Hurley from Sandringham.
The 2022 AFLW Draft concluded after 9 rounds and 86 selections, heavily influenced by the four new expansion clubs.
