I/C: Charlie Cameron, Brad Crouch, Matthew...
Now I admit I only spent 15 minutes creating both teams and I am sure that I have made errors in forgetting certain players, or having other players pretty far out of position, and I must admit I very much struggled picking a full back for the 180cm or less team but I think we can have a good...
I did a similar thread to this a few years ago
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/which-team-list-would-you-least-want.1234408/
but in that instance it was which list would you least want.
I considered doing a similar thread to that, but then I realised we would learn nothing as everyone...
I would honestly love to see this happen. I would love to see a Team of Champions game vs the team that just won the flag.
So Collingwood vs the All Australian team, obviously taking out the Collingwood players from the AA team.
So something like
All Australian
B: Sicily, Wilkie, Stewart
HB...
Fairly simple question but of the last 20 All Australian sides, each side is an amazing team, but which team is the best?
2004 All-Australian team
B: Leo Barry, Matthew Scarlett, Chris Johnson
HB: Austinn Jones, Chad Cornes, Adam McPhee
C: Chris Judd, Simon Black, Nigel Lappin
HF: Jason...
Now I know the title may be a little confusing, but I think this is an interesting question. If you could clone one player 21 times, so have a best 22 of that one player playing in every position which clone team would be the better team? This isn't even quite asking who was the best player, but...
Ruckmen

6 - Max Gawn | 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022
4 - Aaron Sandilands | 2008, 2009, 2010, 2014
On a bit of a roll at the moment having done midfielders and defenders but I am curious about who you all think is the best ruckman of the...
Key Defenders
6 - Matthew Scarlett | 2003, 2004, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011
5 - Alex Rance | 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018
4 - Jeremy McGovern | 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
4 - Darren Glass | 2006, 2007, 2011, 2012
Basic question I know but an interesting one.
To select these four players over all other...
A bit of a wordy title I know but I am curious to see what people are most looking forward to or are most worried about in regards to their team for the 2024 season?
For me, in regards to the Swans
Most looking forward to
Seeing the progression of our younger players like Gulden, Warner and...
So through the off season all players in the competition who are 26 years old or older all decided to compete in a monster truck race, and through sheer bad luck every player managed to do their ACL.
What is your teams best 22 going into 2024 with no players as of now over 26 years old?
For...
Back by no demand, here is my annual thread on which club is in the most trouble from an age profile perspective.
The rules are in this thread that I have only included players who have played 5 or more games, so no draftees get included as we need at least some body of work in order to see if...
Thank you to all the people in the other thread who made their respective teams of the 21st century as I would not have been able to do that on my own.
So the general question here is which team is the best, so which team do you think would go out and win as a team?
I am going to give everyone...
So my general idea here is I am going to get a list of as many best 22's from each club and then hopefully in a few weeks create a poll where we can find out the club with the best 22 from the 21st century, which I think will be interesting.
Now for me the only rules are be sensible with...
I know, most people will likely vote for Diacos here but I am curious about what people think of them in comparison to each other. Both are basically the same age, both play in a vaguely similar way and their stats are very similar.
If given the choice who would you take at your club?
Back by popular demand (well, one Hawthorn supporter Strapping Young Lad ) is my annual "Which list is in the most trouble age profile wise, 2023 edition"
This thread is about the older players of each club and how ready the players underneath them are ready to take over, and also importantly...
Simple question but I actually think surprisingly difficult.
This is not a "who do you think is the best player of all time" question. This is a "take any player from history and be able to draft them at 18 years old to your club for the 2023 season, who do you pick" question and I think it is...
Done this thread before a few years ago but it deserves a new version I think.
Anyone who has been following the draft for a while now will have had players that they really wanted their club to draft, and most of the time your club would not have drafted that particular player, for whatever...
Stealing from Lore
The AFL draft order has now been set (forgetting about potential pick trades which are possible) so I thought it would be a good time to start a thread to discuss who you realistically want to draft at your club and why?
So when I say realistically I am for instance as a...

I am actually surprised someone did not create this thread two weeks ago but since they didn't I decided to create it now as I am curious about what people think.
I suspect Brisbane will win the poll and if Sydney were not in the finals I would likely vote for them too as Brisbane seem to...
This is a question I have wondered over the last few days and I am quite curious about what other people think.
Having the best player has obvious benefits, not only on the field in terms of performance but also off the field in terms of marketing and also possibly convincing other players to...
I am sure many of you have seen this video from around 7 years ago explaining the rules of the AFL
but the AFL have just released a new version
I personally prefer the newer version as they are not going for the weird CGI that the first video is going for and personally I think they...
So, now 8 sides for the finals are settled I thought I would ask the fans of the teams in the finals why they think their team won't win the flag, or the biggest weakness of your team that you fear will be exploited in the finals by the best teams?
For me I am going to have to go with 3 things...
Using the ladder predictor, and making the assumption that Sydney is going to beat St Kilda (dangerous I know) I have determined that Sydney's most likely opponent in the first week of the finals will be the winner of the Melbourne vs Brisbane game, with us to play the winner at the SCG (again a...

Figured that he was good enough to warrant his own thread on the main board. Was a complete beast in the centre for a decade, other players finding it almost impossible to bring him down. Am going to miss him at the Swans.
Josh...
Now I am making a massive assumption here as Clarkson could do something left of field and want to stay in Melbourne so that would mean he could go to North Melbourne or something like that but right now I think GWS and Gold Coast are both looking likely to need a new coach at the end of the...
Admittedly a pretty low-effort thread by me here since I am largely stealing from an SEN article but I think it is an interesting discussion nonetheless.

I have done this thread before but I think it is an interesting discussion about which clubs are in the most trouble with their age profile, as in their best players are all approaching retirement age and they don't have much coming through in regards to their younger players, either by numbers...
