Forty-five TAC Cup players have received invitations to the NAB AFL Combine in October, making up over half of the 80 players attending the 2018 event.
Vic Metro has dominated the invitees, with 25 players provided with the opportunity to attend the National Combine, that will assess each player’s strength and skills through several tests including the standing vertical jump, agility tests and running tasks from October 2 – 5.
Vic Country teams had 20 selections, with Murray Bushranger Jacob Koschitzke included in that group, after lining up for the Allies in the U18 Championships.
Oakleigh Chargers and Sandringham Dragon lead the way with eight and seven invites respectively, followed by Geelong Falcons and Dandenong Stingrays with five each.
