North Melbourne will hold the second pick in the 2025 AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft, which will be held on Wednesday, May 28 from 6.30pm AEST.

Due to the postponement of an Opening Round game, the AFL determined the draft order on a reverse win percentage basis. The order for clubs on the same win percentage was determined by the for/against percentage.

The West Coast Eagles hold the first pick in this year’s AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft, which will be held remotely with clubs selecting their players online.
 
For clubs to participate in the AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft, they must have had an available list spot by 5pm on Tuesday May 27.

The 2025 AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft will be broadcast exclusively on AFL.com.au and the AFL Live Official App.
