Which team has the most players from other clubs in their best 22? (2017)

[whatis]

Could differ depending on individuals' idea of best 22. I have the Eagles at 9 that I can think of:

Josh Kennedy (Blues)
Sam Mitchell (Hawks)
Elliot Yeo (Lions)
Lewis Jetta (Swans)
Nathan Vardy (Cats)
Jamie Cripps (Saints)
Mark Hutchings (Saints)
Jack Redden (Lions)
Sharrod Wellingham (Pies)

Out of best 22:

Josh Hill (Bulldogs)
Drew Petrie (Kangaroos)

(Plus bonus questions)

Which Premiership team in the AFL era currently holds the record for this on Grand Final day?
Which team has the most on their list, not including best 22?
Which team has the least?

 

[Golden_6]

I'd imagine that we would have the least amount. Only 3 in our best 22, 5 in total.

Tom Boyd
Travis Cloke
Stewart Crameri
Shane Biggs
Matthew Suckling

 

[De Iulio2Wiggins]

We've picked up a few blokes from some club called Carlton, not too sure yet how they're fitting in with the rest of our GWS boys

 

[Wallaby]

Here's a funny one - GWS have plenty.
Davis, Mumford, Johnson, Ward, Scully, Shaw. Probably De Boer isn't best 22, but Deledio would be if fit. Plus Griffin, Mzungu, Simpson, and Patfull. So at least 12 on the list.

I think Richmond have 5 in best 22, plus 5 others on list (including Maric, who has technically retired).

Hogg (Footscray) and Madden (Essendon) also.

Adelaide had 9 in '98 as well, with Caven, Connell, Ellen, James, Jarman, Koster, Robran, Stevens and Thiessen.

9 is the most (counting players who had actually played for another club) in "the AFL era", and should be the highest no. of all time. Carlton had 8 in 1995 as did Port Adelaide in 2004.

Edit: Including players who are no longer playing but still listed e.g. Heritier Lumumba at Melbourne and Chris Yarran at Richmond.

There are 14 players currently on lists who have come to their current club having been on the list at another club(s) without playing senior football. Another 4 players (Currie, Giles, Hamling and Patfull) have been at a club without playing senior football but came to their current club having played seniors at yet another club! Geelong's Menegola has been at two previous clubs without playing seniors.
