Hi everyone, if you're keen to take a break from the Carlton/Collingwood trolling like I am, have a crack at this thought exercise I've put together.
I've been thinking about this topic for a while and couldn't find another thread that covered it. I think it'll be interesting to see the perspectives that posters from different generations have, to see a diverse range of players based on who they've watched over the years, and to understand the way that different people define greatness in players.
You can choose to quantify a players greatness however you see fit. For example, I have Alex Rance in my team who may not have the longevity of someone like Dustin Fletcher, but I just think Rance was the better player. Another point to consider is how much of a player's prime you got to see and whether or not that's enough to warrant selection in your team. Again, it's up to you! As you'll see in my team, I don't really give a s**t about positions, but I tried to make a team that could conceivably play an exhibition match together. Also, if you want to take into account personal bias for/against certain players, I won't hold it against you.
As for my team, I'm 30 now and my earliest memories of footy date back to 2000ish so I'll build my team from around that time onward.
