The Recruit

Hosted by former AFL player turned popular radio host Ryan “Fitzy” Fitzgerald, THE RECRUIT is a reality football entertainment series that will follow 12 ‘Recruits’ who will live and play together as a team, while at the same time competing against each other, in order to win a life-changing prize – a guaranteed place at an AFL club. Along with Fitzy, AFL Hall of Fame legend Michael “Vossy”, a three-time AFL Premiership Captain with the Brisbane Lions and winner of the 1996 Brownlow Medal, Voss is the head coach of the series. Joining Jitzy and Voss are former Hawthorn champion and FOX FOOTY commentator Ben Dixon as Assistant Coach, Port Adelaide’s world class fitness guru Darren Burgess as High Performance Coach. Together these sporting heavyweights will put the Recruits through their paces, both physically and mentally, in order to discover a player who is truly worthy of a place on an AFL team.
