U18 Champs 2018 U18 Academy Series

So Noah Anderson to captain the level one academy team vs NZ Hawks. Is he a bottom aged? If so that's a really good effort.

The level one academy team is the underage group that will be draft eligible next year. They traditionally play the NZ Hawks each year on ANZAC eve.

The level two academy are the kids draft eligible this year.

Are there games on the Gold Coast this weekend? I thought I remember seeing that there were but the AFL seems to be treating the information as top secret, can't find anything.

The swans have picked their strongest team for the clash against Tasmania.

Tarryn Thomas with the best performance of the Academy series, Tassie comfortably beat the Swans academy by 5 goals.

You'd best hope your side finish in the bottom 5 then.....Elsewise there's no chance you'll be scoring both of he & another gun to go with him.

Won’t go top 5.

Won’t go top 5.

Probably just outside ATM....But it will take all of your other draft picks to secure him, should you grab another before him.

I think he will go in the 10-15 range personally.

Happy to revist this at draft time.
