‘Dedication’ is put to the test, as 8 remain in the running for their dream prize – a contract with an AFL club. After a tough training session at the home of the Western Bulldogs, the Recruits are shocked by an early morning wakeup from Barry Hall. All fly to Newcastle to compete in the Captain’s ‘Raw Challenge’, and winner Jayden runs the Recruits out for a battle on the SCG against the Sydney Swans Academy. It’s a strategic delist but things don’t go to everyone’s plan and a favourite says goodbye.
