Richmond has been allocated the first pick in this year's 2020 NAB AFL Women's Draft.
The Club will also be provided with an additional first round selection, pick No. 15, that must be on-traded to bring in ready-made talent. This pick can be combined with other selections and/or players, however, cannot be used in a scenario that brings another selection back to the Club.
In addition to their two first round picks, the Tigers have been allocated picks No. 17 (second round) and No. 31 (third round).
"We appreciate the assistance from the AFL to continue our list build for the 2021 AFLW season," Richmond’s Head of Women’s Football, Kate Sheahan said.
"We’re excited to add more talent to our Club in the upcoming AFLW sign and trade period, and continue our plans and preparation for the season ahead."
The AFL Women’s Sign and Trade Period is scheduled to commence on Monday August 3, 2020.
During this period, Clubs will be permitted to sign up to 27 players, including rookie players. Rookie players in the AFL Women’s Competition are those that have not been listed with any Australian football team for the past three years.
