I don’t know where the info can be found but we have 3 priority signings we can use on academy players over 2 or 3 years. We chose to use none last year because we had Young, Goody and others from the dominant SA U18 team.
Just announced Brooksby has pre signed.This is the Rookie Me top 10 rankings
Young, Goody, Brooksby can all join via NGA. I think Window can choose to stay in SA which means we can grab her with our first pick. Then there are other SA girls hovering around the top 15 that we are a chance for with our second pick.
They probably have both signed and are doing the announcements 1 by 1 instead of all at once.
Either she has signed and they are drip feeding things, or she said she wants to take her chance in the draft, ie nominates another state to be drafted in. She knows its between her and Window who goes first in the SA zone draft part of the AFLW draft, if she nominates SA.
If this is true the ordering seems strange. Not many would disagree Goody is the second best available no?
Looks like they wanted to make the announcement after they had been to the 3 girls training sessions, so they could share it with their SANFL club teammates, and probably had different training days and times.

So what does that mean in AFLW? Can the Crows just sign her like we've signed our three, or can we still draft her?Re trying to draft Piper Window, Rookie Me Centeral says
AFLW Draft Power Rankings: October 2023
The 2023 AFLW Draft Power Rankings for October have been released with some fresh faces and minor moves across the top 40 list.
SEPTEMBER RANKING: #3
DRAFT LOOK:
The SANFLW best and fairest winner could end up the first ‘live’ pick in the draft, and considering her CV in 2023, it would hard to deny she is up there with the best. If a state-based draft she will likely head to Port, but in a first round national-based draft then it opens up the possibilities. The fact she is a Crows-linked NGA player is likely to get Adelaide proactive in securing her.
STATE RANKING: #3
The teams ahead of us might be open to trading, but I don't think you have much flexibility with trading picks or players. Would be hard for the Crows to put together a better offer than us if it comes to that.Re trying to draft Piper Window, Rookie Me Centeral says

No.
Window has a choice whether to nominate for the draft as a SA player or a national player. If she nominates for SA she'll end up here, but if she nominates for the national she could end up anywhere. That is how Adelaide could get her, but they'll have to trade into a position to take her.
Would take a significant amount of collusion to achieve that no?
