The winger, who is the son of former Singleton legend Scott Dalibozek, was the only Country-based player selected in a group of 32, dominated by players from Sydney GPS schools.
The St Peters Maitland student got a taste of what to expect when part of a NSW squad, minus GPS players, which went down 41-25 to the Western Force last month.
Incredibly, Dalibozek scored all five of NSW's tries. Fellow Hunter players Jacklin Andrews, Logan Badger, Charlie Bennett, Thomas McPhee (Wanderers), Sam Parkinson and Tim Ryan (Maitland) were in that squad.
Gen Blue take on the Brumbies in Sydney on September 15 and the Reds in Brisbane the following Sunday, after which an Australian team will be named to tour New Zealand.
Gen Blue commitments will impact on Dalibozek's finals commitments with Wanderers. He has been a revelation since a man-of-the match performance on debut in a 34-17 win over Nelson Bay three weeks ago.
