POTENTIAL future top-five pick Noah Anderson is among the players set to take to the MCG on Grand Final morning in the NAB AFL All Stars 'Futures' clash.
The under-17s game will feature prospects eligible for the 2019 draft and will be streamed LIVE on AFL.com.au and the AFL Live Official App ahead of the premiership decider.
The two teams have been named after recently-retired AFL stars Nick Riewoldt and Jimmy Bartel, with NAB AFL Academy head coach Luke Power to take charge of 'Team Riewoldt', while South Australian under-18 coach Tony Bamford will coach 'Team Bartel'.
Anderson impressed this year for Vic Metro's under-18 side as a bottom-ager, and the midfielder/forward has also shown promising signs in the TAC Cup with the Oakleigh Chargers.
He is the son of former Hawthorn premiership player Dean, but the Hawks, nor St Kilda where Dean also played, will have access to Noah given Dean did not play 100 games for either club.
West Australian talent Luke Jackson, who gave up an exciting basketball career to pursue football, will play in the contest, while Vic Country's Hayden Young has also been selected.
In recent years the under-18 NAB AFL All Stars clash has been played on Grand Final morning as a curtain-raiser, including last year when this year's Rising Star winner Jaidyn Stephenson was named best afield. However, the under-18 All Stars game will not be played this year with concerns over the prospects' workloads heading into the NAB AFL Draft Combine the following week.
The under-17s 'Futures' game will be broadcast from 10am on Grand Final day.
