WITH the final week of the AFL Under-18 National Championships now underway with games tomorrow and Wednesday, teams still have plenty of chages depending on the respective Vic Metro and Vic Country selections. It is no surprise to see Sandringham Dragons at the top with 16 changes to their side that went down to Eastern Ranges, with the likes of Charlie Dean and Hugo Ralphsmith back into the side, while Darcy Chirgwin and Ryan Byrnes head to their respective Victorian squads. Other important inclusions across the round are Jamarra Ugle-Hagan (Oakleigh) and Darcy Cassar (Western). With teams keen to get a win in the final round of June, all 10 teams running out will be keen to grab some much needed points ahead of the run home for finals.
