The top results from physical testing conducted at the 2024 Telstra AFL State Draft Combine and 2024 Telstra AFLW State Draft Combine have been confirmed.

Three events were held as part of this year’s state Draft Combines. The first was conducted in Melbourne on Sunday, October 6, followed by events in Adelaide and Perth which were across the weekend.

The state Draft Combines followed the national Draft Combine for boys and girls which was hosted in Melbourne from October 4-6.

Physical testing across all Draft Combines included a 2km time trial, standing vertical jump, running vertical jump, 20m sprint and agility test. All testing was conducted by Rookie Me.

Below are the top five results from each of the tests performed at this year’s state Draft Combine events.

The top 10 results from the national Draft Combine were released last week and are available here.
