WEST Coast players' delegate Adam Selwood says players are determined to have their say at next month's AFL drugs summit.

As debate swirls around the league's contentious illicit drugs policy, the AFL Players Association discussed the issue at its annual directors and delegates conference on Friday.

Selwood said players discussed the importance of their views being well represented at the summit.

"We are pretty keen and eager to make sure we have players in attendance to make sure that our voice is heard, that they understand the situation of players and everything else that goes along with it," he said.

"With the clubs, if there is an issue out there, we want to help it. And also, we're concerned with the players' wellbeing while they're in the game, but also post their career as well.

"If there are changes (to the policy), we want to be as proactive as we possibly can and we want to get as many guys in this summit to express their views."

Selwood said he was comfortable with the AFL's illicit drugs policy as it stands, but the players remained open to finding ways to improve the system.

"We are all in agreeance that the policy is set up for the right reasons and that's (to) try and help people who may have issues or that may have had an event that happened with an illicit drug," Selwood said.

"The numbers are extremely low ... Can we make the policy better?

"Obviously it has come to light in the last few months that maybe changes can be made."
