Stanis Heili and Brandon Nazione have been selected to trial with a number of AFL clubs over the next week. The two athletes performed well at the AFL's US Combine held in Los Angeles in April this year.

They have already met with Mason Cox to personally discuss what may lie ahead for them and attended the St Kilda vs Melbourne game at Etihad on the weekend.

Omari Gudul should also be in Australia with Heili and Nazione trialling but it is believed he is having visa problems preventing his entry to the country.

In the week ahead they will attend more AFL matches and trial at a number of clubs interested in converting these tall talented athletes to Australian rules.

Clubs can sign these players to either International Rookie (Category B) or International scholarship list without having to wait in line for them at the draft.
