C: D.Swallow, G.Ablett, S.Johnson
HF: B.Harvey, L.Franklin, L.Parker

FOLL: S.Jacobs, J.Macrae, T.Rockliff
INT: S.Pendlebury, S.Mumford, J.Kennedy

At the end of round 22:
- take the top 8 defenders
- top 10 mids
- top 4 rucks
- top 8 forwards
??????

Cut the bench off if you want a starting 22???

It needs to be realistic.. ie: You carn't have David Swallow as a Full Back... but i agree with the end of round 22 but I want the discussion to be rolling so we can see how much each team changes to the end.

It needs to be realistic

But someone like N.Smith (Swans), MacC#$% (coll), Crowley (Freo).... etc never scale in dream team. I could make the list as long as possible. You will never have shut down defenders in the team, or taggers or players you need to win a match. A dreamteam all Australian would be a bigger farse then the All Australian team.... So why do you need a fullback?

Because having to pick a full back and all the other positions makes it more interesting.

Picking 8 defenders, 20 mids, 4 rucks, 8 forwards is easy, pick the highest averaging players... If you have to select an actual team it adds a little fun and makes it harder at the same time. There are some reasonable DT players that are better than the ones you selected..

not in real life though.

So you saying that choosing the best "scoring" players in each position you think is like me saying choosing the best in each position. AFL fantasy Dreamteam will be the highest scoring players. You will never get a balanced team.

Ill be quiet now. But anyone that says caff is not the best tag right now and should be in the "dreamteam" is full of it.

ps. if you got stats on the defenders/taggers blanketing the opposition, this would be interesting
