First selection | Aaron Cadman, Greater Western Sydney |
2022 Covid top-up players
editDue to the League wanting to ensure that matches are not cancelled or postponed during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, each club named twenty players to their Covid top-up player list. For Victorian based teams, all of these players played for their affiliated reserves team or junior development academy, or for clubs outside of Victoria, the majority were sourced from the local second level leagues.[1]
In round 2, West Coast became the first club to utilise the top-up player pool, when they had twelve players unable to play due to the AFL's health and safety protocols. Five players, Angus Dewar, Aaron Black, Stefan Giro, Declan Mountford and Brayden Ainsworth were chosen to play against North Melbourne.[2]

North Melbourne concessions
editDue to the club's poor on-field results since 2020, the AFL announced draft concessions for North Melbourne[139] which included:
- A second-round pick and third-round pick in the 2023 AFL Draft: at least one of these picks must be traded for a player during the 2022 trade period.
- North Melbourne will not carry the picks into 2023, but they will be tied to their finishing position.
- Two extra Category A Rookie list spots.
