Sydney Swans
Dean Towers, pick No. 22 The Swans' top pick in 2012, the athletic wingman was named as an emergency twice last year and will hope to crack the big time in 2014.
Harrison Marsh, pick No. 44 A developing half-back, the West Australian showed some nice signs in the NEAFL before a hamstring injury ended his rookie campaign early.
Tim Membrey, pick No. 46 The mid-sized forward kicked 47 goals in the NEAL to demonstrate his talent. He's focusing on improving his defensive skills as he moves towards senior selection.
Matthew Dick, pick No. 64 An excellent athlete who doesn't turn 20 until November this year, the defensive prospect will likely spend another season honing his game in the NEAFL.
Harry Cunningham, pick No. 107 He was forced to wait from round one, 2012 until round 17, 2013 to get his second AFL game. But his development was clear to see, appearing in the Swans' last two finals for the year and five games overall in an encouraging second season.
Kurt Tippett, pick No. 11 (pre-season draft) Suspended for the opening half of 2013, Tippett still ended the year as the Swans' leading goal-kicker with 35 for the season. Enough said.
Rookies
Jake Lloyd, pick No. 16 A good ball user, Lloyd had a strong NEAFL campaign, including a starring role in the Eastern Conference Grand Final win over Belconnen.
Xavier Richards, pick No. 29 Proved he was well ahead of schedule by making one senior appearance last year and is in the midst of an impressive pre-season. Brother of Swans' stalwart Ted.
Dane Rampe, pick No. 37 One of the rookie draft's true success stories. Plucked from relative obscurity, he played all but one game for the year and earned himself a fresh two-year contract.
Daniel Robinson, pick No. 50 A former NSW scholarship holder who also had a strong NEAFL campaign. He has shown ability as an inside midfielder.
Brandon Jack, pick No. 57 Like the younger Richards brother he also developed far more quickly than anticipated, making nine senior appearances last year. He also still has huge room for improvement.
Sam Naismith, pick No. 58 A ruck prospect, injuries ruined his 2013, but he is currently showing very good signs during his second AFL pre-season.
