Adam Saad, Michael Hartley and Ozgur Uysal have been selected in the 40-man squad in the AFL Victoria Young Guns match, a curtain-raiser to the Sunday’s Preliminary final. The match draws talented players from all across Victoria – from the VFL, TAC, and local leagues to provide AFL clubs another chance to witness the best of local talent to play. Players are either nominated by their respective Talent/Region Manager, but those nominations receive greater weight if they receive an AFL club nomination. Players have to be under the age of 23 to compete in the game. The squad will train twice this week prior to the game, where final fitness tests will be done to determine availability for the match on Sunday, 11am at North Port Oval.The full squad is as follows:
