Three more players have been ruled eligible to join AFL clubs via the new pre-season supplementary rules.

Maverick Weller, Keegan Brooksby and Corey Wagner have joined Shane Mumford and Zac Clarke as rookie-list replacements.

The AFL gave the green light to Mumford to sign on with GWS and Clarke to join Essendon as Category A rookies late last week.

Finals Week 1

Melbourne formerly announced the signing of Wagner on Tuesday afternoon, while it is understood delisted Saint Weller will become a Tiger under the rookie-list replacement guidelines. Brooksby is expected to join West Coast.

The trio withdrew from the draft on Monday morning.

“Corey Wagner qualified under the new AFL rule, allowing a player to be added to our list from December 1,” Melbourne general manager of football Josh Mahoney said.

“By committing to Corey now, we can guarantee him a place on our rookie list, rather than waiting for the Draft and risking another team taking him.”

“Corey had a fantastic season playing for the Casey Demons under Jade Rawlings,” Mahoney said.

“We feel that his AFL experience with North Melbourne, his physical attributes and his flexibility in his role will make him a welcome addition to our list.

Weller, who has played more than 100 games for the Suns and Saints, will bolster Richmond’s midfielder depth, after the club lost Reece Conca, Sam Lloyd, Anthony Miles and Corey Ellis during the trade and free agency period.

Players eligible for selection under the pre-season supplementary selection period cannot train with their new club until December 1.

To qualify as a rookie-list replacement, players must have previously been nominated for the draft or have previously been on an AFL list.

Retired players or players who had not been on an AFL list for more than one year were also eligible.
