European Legion and Titans squads named for AIS/AFL academy tour

Twelve "nations" represented over the two teams(13 if the spaniard gets a game) is terrific, an indication of the development of the game across Europe maybe??. Players from Italy(league only 3 years old) and Netherlands(effectively about 4-5years old) and the other first timers from Finland and Germany(leagues been around a bit longer) can only be a good thing for footy in Europe.

Good to see Croatia represented as well, despite the setback(Hawks and Power forced to merge) in the Croatian league last year. What is the likelihood of the teams reforming as separate entities soon, kolja?

Have to agree with both of you, Brett & John, the European teams will struggle to be competitive so experience is what will be gained the most. Let's hope the Legion can be 2-3 goals, at least, closer than they were last year.

Will be interesting to see how the Titans' fare. Too big a blow out risk's the exercise not being repeated I would guess.

Congratulations to all the players chosen and i would say they will all be giving it their best shot, and let's hope we see two terrific games of footy showcased in Europe.
