As you can see from the above, there is 1 name that has not signed on for next year.
We need to take 3 picks into the draft and we have a 1st, 2nd and 3rd rounder.
We have a list size of 30.
From the above list, we have 27 players + 3 picks.
End result....
CHLOE DALTON IS NOT PLAYING!
I'm assuming this is because of her rugby 7's double duty and her chasing a(nother?) gold medal.
But unless i'm missing something (i don't think i am) that is devastating news IMO.
CONFIRMED.

Quote:PACEY Carlton midfielder Chloe Dalton will put her AFLW career on hold in 2021, returning to rugby sevens to pursue an Olympic berth.
The Tokyo Olympics have been postponed until next year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the 27-year-old needs to be based in Sydney until then for training.
Dalton, who finished second in the club's best and fairest this year, will return to the Blues after her Olympic bid, and has signed a contract for 2022.
She previously represented the country at the Rio Games in 2016.
