That's a pretty tough exercise (oops, forgot McEvoy is no longer with the saints, will fix later) ... think  I went okay.

That's OK Gozza, you could have Grant Thomas as coach.

I tried to base it around their preferred positions as much as possible, otherwise it'd be all mids.

I tried picking this almost on reverse ladder order.

Pick the best players from the crap teams, and then fill the blanks with the best teams. Seems to have worked well.

Here is the order i worked with, and associated player.
GWS - Cameron
GC - Ablett
STK - Riewoldt
MELB - Frawley
WB - Griffen
NM - Wells
PA - Boak
ADE - Betts
BRIS - Rockliff
WC - Cox
FREO - Fyfe
SYD - J.Kennedy
RICH - Deledio
ESS - Goddard
CARL - Henderson
GEEL - Enright
COLL - Pendlebury
HAW - Lake

I was tempted to throw Hendo into my team !
I have found the best way to pick this sort of team is to pick your ruck and KPP's 1st and then work from there. But I'm sure everyone has their own theory !

Amers you really made this job a difficult one only selecting one player from each club. It made it difficult to find a place for Henderson (Carl), Thomas (Carl), Selwood (Geel), Mitchell (Haw), H. Shaw (GWS), Pavlich (Freo) and the list just keeps going on and on. All players that can have a big impact on a game. Maybe Thomas, Selwood, Shaw and Pavlich can keep the bench warm.  ;D

Now imagine that along with my above side.
