Twelve players from Western Australia will put their bodies to the ultimate test when they take part in the four-day long 2016 NAB AFL Draft Combine this week.

AFL National and International Talent Manager Kevin Sheehan said the NAB AFL Draft Combine brings the best young talent to one place for a final round of testing.

“The Draft Combine is the final chance many clubs will have to see prospective players up close,” he said.

“Clubs will not only watch the testing but will conduct interviews with players as they count down to the 2016 NAB AFL Draft in Sydney.”

The NAB AFL Draft Combine includes testing of athleticism and football skills, as well as assessing each player’s personality and character – all essential elements clubs consider in the drafting process.

More than 100 additional players will be tested at State Combines in Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Sydney.
