NATHAN Krakouer has been selected with Port Adelaide’s first pick of the 2015 NAB AFL Rookie Draft.

A former Power player drafted in 2006 with Travis Boak, Paul Stewart, Robbie Gray and Justin Westhoff, Krakouer’s selection comes after playing last season in Port Adelaide’s traditional black-and-white jumper as part of its new League and Academy program.

He was part of the grand final team that lost to Norwood in September.

Port Adelaide also re-listed defender Tom Logan as a rookie with its second-round pick and formally drafted winner of FOX8’s The Recruit Johann Wagner with its final selection.

It finalises a 46-man AFL playing squad for the Power, with 40 senior players, four rookies and two ‘category B’ rookies in Wagner and international player Daniel Flynn.

Port Adelaide Academy player Keenan Ramsey will find himself in opposing local colours next year after being recruited by the Adelaide Crows with pick 27.

Former Port Adelaide Anthony Wilson was also taken by the Crows, meaning the pair will wear the white, navy, red and yellow against the Magpies when playing in the SANFL in 2015. 

Ramsey and Krakouer joined fellow Academy player Declan Hamilton in being taken by AFL teams in this draft period.

Hamilton was taken by the Western Bulldogs in last week's NAB AFL Draft.
