Drouin’s Tom Barr has also been selected for the team, along with Brayden McCarrey and Russell Cowan from Bairnsdale and Sean Westaway and Josh Hopkins from Leongatha.
Maffra’s Hudson Holmes, Danny Butcher and Kade Renooy have also been named, while Moe’s Mitch Stanlake, Tyson Biffin, Ash Dugan and Dylan Farrell have received the call up along with Wonthaggi Power’s Aiden Lindsay.
Kuiy Jiath, Anthony Rosato and Isaac Abas from Morwell will feature in the side, plus Michael Jacobsen, Dylan Loprese, Mark Collison from Traralgon, and Nick Stevenson, Matt Rennie and Kim Drew from Warragul.
