Adelaide

Pick 11: Wayne Milera
An exciting prospect who made his debut in Round One. Played eight of the first 11 games before being sent back to the SANFL, where he played as a half-forward and on the wing. The Crows expect him to make a big leap forward next year.

Pick 17: Tom Doedee
Showed his versatility as a defender in the SANFL being able to play on small and tall forwards. An outstanding competitor and is fearless when the ball is up for grabs. Has drawn comparisons to Crows teammate Kyle Cheney.

Rookie selection pick 13: Paul Hunter
After an interrupted pre-season, the mature-aged ruckman played predominately as a forward in the SANFL with Reilly O'Brien doing most of the ruck work. Retained on the rookie list next year.

Rookie selection pick 17: Jonathon Beech
The former West Adelaide forward was the Crows' State League Club Champion. Was elevated to the senior list and named as an emergency late in the season such was his stellar form. Retained on the rookie list for 2017.

Rookie selection pick 48: Hugh Greenwood
Signed as a Category B rookie on a two-year contract, the former Australian under-19 basketball representative impressed with his strength and skill. Played in the midfield and also up forward.

Rookie selection pick 58: Alex Keath
Like Greenwood, the former Victorian cricketer signed with the Crows as a Category B rookie on a two-year contract. Improved as the season went along as a key defender and also spent some time up forward late in the year, kicking two goals in Adelaide's SANFL Semi-Final win over South Adelaide.
