Draft Combine Invitees & Results

I imagine that Brad Hill, Elliott Yeo, and Ahmed Saad, among others, have all improved their standings as a result of their Draft Combine results.
Hill vs WHE was great viewing in the final lap.
The two of them broke away and lead the pack the whole race - they were actually chatting to each other as they ran, then on the last lap WHE got ahead early and looked to have Hill beaten before he burst ahead in the last 30 metres or so.
WHE has really helped his cause this combine and cemented his place in the top 10 or earlier.
Also was really impressed with Brandon Ellis this week. A real competitor and tested really well for such a solid kid.

WA boys doing really well in the testing (Nelson, Yeo, Hill and Taylor).
Whether they will all end up quality AFL level players though......

Jackson Allen also ran 10.21
Lockyer's done alright too. Better than I expected actually...
"Apparently the top 10 for the 3km time trial is not quite correct. Jack Crisp also ran 10.32, Jackson Merrett 10.35 and Frazer Dale 10.36 but they are not listed"
There could quite possibly be more. I would imagine this to be very disappointing to the boys involved not having their efforts recognized. How could the AFL stuff this up?
Was Matthew Buntine injured? I haven't heard any of his results.
Only completed sprints. Did not do endurance testing minor injjury

Question for those who know more about u-18 players. It seems over the past few seasons that a fair percentage of players are injured at the time of the draft camp/combine. Is it a case of the season just finished causing this, the timing of the camp/combine or are players deciding to sit out tests if they're not 100% (fit enough that they'd play a match if they had one though) because testing poorly might be considered worse than not testing at all?

I would have thought that all the results for all the players would have been listed.

I was at the combine on Thursday with a media pass. It was pretty cool being able to speak to coaches on different topics. Just a quick question. How many players get drafted each year? And how many actually nominate for the draft?
Normally about 70 in main draft, a handful in the PSD, and another 60-70 in the rookie draft - so somewhere near 150 all up
Dunno hw many add their name in, each year. Prolly 3 or 4 hundred.
But the names stay in the pool for a couple of years after being nominated, so effectively maybe 800 are nominated any given year.

Can anyone nominate for the draft? Of course, if you're in the age parameters.
I was under the impression you had to be associated with a state-level team. Eg, playing colts in the WAFL minimum.

To go to the national combine.
Oh right. So you can nominate for the draft regardless then?
Now that I think about it, when we picked up Lewis Broome, I don't think he was registered in the WAFL was he? Could be wrong.

Re: Draft Combine Invitees
Jordan Murdoch ran a 2.76 at the state camp yesterday(played Glenelg Ressies G.F. last Saturday), went O.K. at other disiplines as well..
Thought you guys might like to know.

Lewis was playing with Claremont. you must be playing for a WAFL club (or state equivalent) to nominate for the draft.
That doesn't explain guys who're drafted straight out of amateurs, or suburban leagues.

This says you need an e-mail address and postage to send off the form.
Give it a go, IMHO.
