Not going to affect the overall result but why stop for the dinner break when it will take just 6 overs or so to finish the match?!

Who's the likely number one pick. Are they an absolute gun?

TOP OPEN POOL PROSPECTS

While this year’s draft pool for some isn’t as deep as last year’s, the top of the class is tantalising.

The consensus among sources spoken to by foxfooty.com.au is that Oakleigh Chargers ball magnet Chloe Bown is the No. 1 open pool prospect. One source said Bown was a “pretty clear standout”.

A consistent, reliable on-baller with an incredible work ethic and ability to kick well on both feet, Bown had a near perfect draft year. She was crowned the best and fairest player of 2025 national championships and selected as All-Australian captain after steering Victoria Metro to back-to-back title wins. Her season was book-ended by a best on ground medal when representing the Australia Under 18 team against the All Stars in April and the Coates Talent League best and fairest award in September after averaging 29 disposals and six tackles per game.

It’s understood multiple clubs are keen to get their hands on Pick 1 to give them first access to a player of Bown’s quality.

Richmond AFLW List and Recruiting Manager, Trent Mosbey, said the trade was an exciting one for the Club.

“We are thrilled to have first access to who we think is the best player in the upcoming draft pool,” Mosbey said.

“Bringing in the highest-quality talent is always a priority, and we are pleased to also add pick 56 and an additional future selection to strengthen our hand.

“We are excited for next week’s draft, and we are sure the Tiger Army will be as well.”

Richmond last held the number one pick at AFLW level in 2020, selecting powerful midfielder Ellie McKenzie.
