Here are the top fitness test results from the AFL combines held around Australia in 2021. In most years there has been a national combine with players invited from around Australia, with state-based combines for the next tier players. This year, as was the case in 2020, there were only combines held in home states, with all players combined. We have combined the best state results into the top national draft camp results for 2021.
There was testing conducted on different dates around Australia. There were five individual camps in Victoria Country, Queensland, Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia. NSW/ACT and VIC metro did not undertake any combine testing, though those athletes submitted 2km time trial results via the Strava app.
Venues: South Australia - University of SA's Mawson Lakes Campus, Salisbury's Bridgestone Athletics Centre. The Vic Country NAB AFL Draft Combine took place in Bendigo.
