Four Irish players participated in the 2023 AFL Draft Combine, with Tyrone’s Eoin McElholm ranking in the top 10 for the 20m sprint.

McElholm travelled Down Under with Down’s Odhran Murdock, Galway’s James McLaughlin and Cork’s Conor Corbett for two weeks to visit AFL clubs and test alongside Australian prospects. They also attended the Grand Final last week in Melbourne.
