This is a hypothetical exercise with a starting 18 team of players with only one player selected from every AFL team.
This is an entertaining experiment. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the player selected is the best player in the team, but the one that fits the structure. It’s like a jigsaw puzzle; one change can cause a domino effect! Check out the team following Round 17.

It was a big round of footy and there were important storylines across the weekend.
We have selected one positive and one negative from the Round 17 performance of each of the 18 clubs.
See our thoughts below:
Positive: Schoenberg shows up
There weren’t many Adelaide players who could hold their head high after the lacklustre 63-point loss to Essendon.
One Crow who did his bit was youngster Harry Schoenberg.
In just his 23rd game, the 20-year-old was one of only a few who led the way with 20 disposals and a team-high seven tackles, four clearances and one of his side’s two goals.

Brownlow medallist Gerard Healy is incredibly bullish about GWS’ chances in the medium term, saying they can win the flag in 2022.
The Giants lost the first three games of the current season, but have recovered somewhat to sit just one win outside of the top eight.
Leon Cameron’s side has been ravaged by injury this year, with the likes of captain Stephen Coniglio, Toby Greene and Phil Davis all on the sidelines.
Healy said the Giants had “so much upside” in the coming months, saying he was impressed by the way they were playing despite missing several big names through injury.
