What day is rookie promotion day?

Wednesday, 21st March. ;)

Are you saying that is that the cut-off date, or the only day in which they can elevate rookies?

I thought they were able to do it throughout the season whenever they placed someone on the LTI list or delisted?

[Mr.Craig]

Sorry, should have been clearer.

"Rookie-listed players can also be upgraded when a senior-listed player is placed on the long-term injury list, which he must remain on for a minimum of eight weeks.

AFL rules stipulate each club can upgrade a rookie after round 11 (referred to as the nominated rookie) without a player going onto the long-term injury list.

The deadline for upgrading a rookie prior to the season is the Wednesday before Round 1."
