Tried to be impartial and build a balanced team. Some names missed out such as Lynch, Worsfold, Sumich, etc but just couldn't fit them all in. Don't think there are any glaringly obvious mistakes and think it's a pretty s**t hot team that would give any premier of the time a run for their money.

That was fun and educational. I tried to pick a positional best 22 rather than just the best 22 names to have played with Hudson. So some good players have been left out. There is some slight bias with former 'Pies players but I think I generally gave more weighting to Adelaide players also. I think it's a pretty good line-up. I didn't spend heaps of time on it so I might have missed one or two players who should clearly be in there.
