A group of 17 WAFL players were put through their paces under the watchful eye of AFL recruiters at the WA State AFL Draft Combine on Sunday, October 16.
Held at Herb Graham Recreation Centre in Mirrabooka, the Combine included body composition, speed, agility and power tests consisting of the running and standing vertical jump, beep test, 20m sprint, agility test and repeat 30m sprints.
East Perth's Tarir Bayok recorded one of the best results of the day with a 2.79 second 20m sprint, the fastest recorded at all AFL Draft Combines around Australia this year and only 0.01 seconds behind the current AFL record.
Bayok also recorded the second best result at the WA State Combine in the standing vertical jump with a leap of 73cm behind an impressive 80cm result from Claremont's Bailey Banfield.
Banfield also recorded the highest running vertical jump (right leg) with 88cm, while Subiaco's Liam Ryan topped the results jumping of his left leg with a high-flying 90cm.
East Perth player Stan Wright was the only player to break 8 seconds in the Agility Test with a 7.99 and was followed closely by Peel Thunder's Calvin Thorne with 8.17, Bayok 8.24 and Claremont's Keanu Shandley 8.26.
Claremont's Jake Stergiou impressed in the repeat sprints as the only player to run faster than 24 seconds with a 23.68. The next best were Bayok 24.53 and Banfield 24.88.
Four players reached level 13 in the beep test, with Claremont's Darcy Cameron and West Perth's Luke Meadows exiting on 13.1 and Peel Thunder player Noah Hura and Claremont's Keanu Shandley reaching 13.2.
