Draft Combine call-up for O’Sullivan
KOROIT footballer Finn O’Sullivan has been invited to attend the 2024 AFL Draft Combine.
The AFL has selected 65 draft prospects from around the country to attend the three-day testing in Melbourne between Friday, October 4 and Sunday, October 6.
Nearly a third of those invited are from Vic Country, including O’Sullivan (who is also currently listed with the Oakleigh Charges) and Cobden’s Rhys Unwin (Greater Western Victoria Rebels).
The selections were based on nominations from AFL recruiters, with each club putting forward its list of 50 prospects.
The testing will include vertical and running vertical jumps, a 20-metre sprint, agility test and a two kilometre time trial.
The AFL draft combine, formerly known as the AFL Draft Camp, is a gathering of prospective talent, where selected potential draftees display their athletic ability and relevant footy skills.
The Combine showcases many of the country’s most talented draft-age footballers.
Both O’Sullivan and Unwin played in the Vic Country under 18 squad in the 2024 national championships.
