	Description:		Day one of the 2022 AFL national draft saw 21 players find homes on an AFL list with GWS selecting Aaron Cadman at Pick one. The Crows were called into action when the Sydney Swans decided to bid on Max Michalanney at pick 17. Adelaide matched the bid with Max now a Crow. We’ll have more details on night one of the AFL draft after 8am with David Zita from FOX SPORTS. The AFL has ditched the medical substitute for 2023 and going forward. AFL Media’s Cal Twomey reports the league will instead propose a model that will include four on the bench, plus a tactical substitute to be used at any time by clubs. The change in the rules is set to be formally ratified by the AFL commission in December. The AFL brought in the medical substitute just days before Round 1 in 2021 in response to fears a return to 20-minute quarters after the disrupted pandemic season would lead to more injuries. Harry Sheezel will be the first Jewish player to enter the league in more than two decades after being taken at pick four on Monday night. But the 18-year-old has been on the receiving end of a series of slurs after an article about him hit social media on Sunday night. The comments focused on Jewish stereotypes and made light of the Holocaust. He will be the first Jewish player to enter the AFL since Ezra Poyas was drafted by Richmond in 1999. Collingwood premiership player and influential player agent Craig Kelly is reportedly the favourite to become the Pies’ new CEO. The Age reports Kelly, who leads talent and sports marketing agency TLA, would become available to take up the Collingwood position in 2023. If appointed, Kelly would fill the void left by Mark Anderson, who quit as CEO earlier in November after nearly five years at the helm. Kelly is currently on long service leave and is yet to quit the company, which he founded and which was acquired by QMS Sport in 2019 for $32.7 million. Young defender Will Hamill has been donning a helmet in sessions out at West Lakes. The 22-year-old suffered his sixth concussion in just his 38th match last year against West Coast, which ended his season early. It came after a concussion just two months prior against North Melbourne. After that concussion in Hobart, Hamill concerningly said that he would be bored if he had to retire prematurely because of concussions.
