Each club has officially nominated figures to present draftees with their new jumpers on the first night of the 2025 National Draft, with stars galore to take the stage alongside the prized first-round selections.

Carlton will create a wholesome affair when they match the bid for father-son star prospect Harry Dean, with dual premiership Blue Peter Dean to hand his son his Carlton jumper. The 248-gamer will also do the same for NGA prospect Jack Ison.

Five clubs will have their senior coaches present the fresh faces with the club’s kit; Adelaide’s Matthew Nicks, Collingwood’s Craig McRae, Fremantle’s Justin Longmuir, Port Adelaide’s Josh Carr and St Kilda’s Ross Lyon will do the honours for their respective clubs.

In a nod to his status as a former Pick 1 selection, current AFL star Harley Reid will present jumpers to West Coast’s top two selections, while Adam Treloar will offer the Bulldogs guernsey to Pick 14.

Three recently retired legends will hand a new kit to their respective interstate clubs, with David Swallow, Oscar McInerney and Callan Ward to create iconic pictures next to Gold Coast, Brisbane and GWS’ draftees, respectively.

Premiership heroes of years gone by will also take the stage, with Bachar Houli and David Astbury presenting jumpers to the Tigers’ draftees, Shannon Byrnes doing the duties for the Cats, and Glenn Archer presenting North Melbourne’s selections.

In a similar vein, Sydney has nominated Brett Kirk to do the honours for the Swans rookies, as will Hawthorn with Shane Crawford.

Three-time Demons premiership player (1959, 1960, 1964) Hassa Mann will present Melbourne’s selections with their red and blue uniforms as the club’s rebuild gets officially underway at the draft.
