All-Australian selection for Jack Billings

After starring for the winning Vic Metro team in the final of the 2012 NAB AFL under 18 championships at Etihad Stadium on 4 July, Jack Billings (Year 11) was selected in a scholarship squad for the Australian Institute of Sport AFL Academy. Jack kicked three goals in the final, and was named in Vic Metro’s best players. After a series of positive performances during the championships, Jack, who plays for the Oakleigh Chargers in the TAC Cup competition, was named in the 2012 AFL under 18 All Australian team. Current AFL players Nathan Djerrkura (‘06) and Cyril ‘Junior’ Rioli (‘07) are other Old Boys who have also been honoured with AFL under 18 All-Australian selection. Jack has another year of school football and cricket ahead (he was a member of the APS premiership-winning 1st XI), and becomes eligible for the AFL draft next year.
