North Melbourne are expected to pay the price for their AFLW recruiting spree by being pushed to the back of this year's draft order.

The Kangaroos on Monday confirmed three more signings – including that of Collingwood drawcard Moana Hope – as the women's league expansion signing period drew to a close.

The AFL is set to finalise its 2018 draft order by the close of business tomorrow, with the Roos tipped by insiders to effectively be penalised for landing so many stars in recent weeks, as the league tries to keep the fledgling competition as even as possible.

Fellow expansion club Geelong, who on Monday announced the signatures of former Melbourne and Greater Western Sydney player Maddie Boyd and outgoing GWS forward Phoebe McWilliams, are unlikely to fare quite as badly when the draft order is revealed, with the consensus being that their recruiting haul has not been as impressive as North's.
