Who has your club committed to taking in the rookie draft?

Richmond: Mabior Chol* and Jacob Townsend

* This player is still training at his club but without a promise of being redrafted

Delisted pair Jacob Townsend and Mabior Chol were also at the club ahead of this week's NAB AFL Draft and NAB AFL Rookie Draft.

Townsend, 25, is still coming back from the broken lower left leg he suffered in the final VFL game of the year and faces a delayed start to summer training.

But, the Tigers have committed to redrafting him as a rookie this week after fresh opportunities with Sydney and Greater Western Sydney fell through.

Chol is also hoping to remain at the club and reported for duty with the other young players after an injury-interrupted season.
