The AFL has today announced the 2019 NAB AFL National Academy Allies team of 23 players selected to travel to Perth for Round 3 of the NAB Under-18 National Championships next week.

Five players from the Gold Coast SUNS Academy along with another three from the Brisbane Lions Academy have made the Round 3 Allies team comprised of footballers from New South Wales, the ACT, Northern Territory, Queensland and Tasmania.

The team will this year be coached by premiership player and current AFL Academy Manager Luke Power.

AFL Queensland Talent and Academies Manager, Mark Browning, was excited to see our local talent get the opportunity to play at a national level.
 

"It’s great to see Queenslanders get their opportunity in the side for the upcoming fixture," Browning said.

“We hope their contribution in the team can help produce a better result from their previous game against VIC Country”
