Hmmm, best 22 to watch, as opposed to best 22 to play Obviously there is some overlap, and obviously I will have a bias toward my own side. So be it.
Very quickly done, so my mind will probably change as others add players I didn't immediately think of.

G. Wanganeen S. Silvagni D. Fletcher

C: D. Jarman M. Voss N. Buckley
HF: J. Hird W. Carey G. Ablett Snr
F: M. Ricciuto T. Lockett P. Daicos

Unlucky: J Brown, S Black, G Archer, M Scarlett, M Long, B, Doull, P Salmon, J Akermanis, M Lloyd.

I've tried to go with a well balanced team aswell as pure talent. I originally had Simon Black on the bench but replaced him with Peter Matera to add pace to a fairly slowish but gun midfield.

McKenna Jakovich McLeod
Matera Voss Akermanis
Hird Carey Ablett
Daicos Lockett Modra

Cox Judd Ablett

Cousins, Archer, Franklin, Ricciuto

Unlucky: Dunstall (only have him or plugger imo), Buckley, Roos, Black, Scarlett

Adam Goodes Greg Williams Michael Voss
James Hird Wayne Carey Darren Jarman
Gary Ablett Sr Tony Lockett Peter Daicos
Simon Madden Robert Harvey Chris Judd

My best 22 are a balanced side:

Greig, Williams, Flower
Schimmelbusch, Carey, Blight
Ablett, Dunstall, Matthews

Madden, G. Hocking, Bartlett

Cable, Cox, Gary Wilson, Hird

Emg: J. Krakeour, Lyon, Dench, Lockett
 
I can only gather by this thread that not many people saw Ross Glendinning play.

Yeah but I can only remember the end of his career, so I couldn't justify putting him into my team
