The rules of the priority picks given to compensate for player matching:
#1 you must finish in the bottom 5
#2 you must use your ‘natural’ first pick
#3 that natural first pick must be pushed back by a bid on a player
then you get a pick at the end of night 1 (ie. after the first round including Band 2 free agency compo is finished). At that point you can trade the pick. If at the pick on day 2 you have no list spots you lose it (if untraded).
The priority pick is after round 1 picks, Band 2 compo picks, is before Round 2 picks, and are in reverse ladder order.
Therefore:
- You can only get 1 priority pick from this
- If your pick is pushed back due to Band 1 free agency compo or the AFL giving out additional priority picks that doesn’t trigger eligibility.
- If you get Band 1 FA compo that extra pick isn’t impacted by these rules.
