And then on the opposing side you have Patrick Dangerfield. It would make for a good contest. That's if the player's were wanting to do it and the clubs allowed them too as well (which in reality, they won't). But think about the public.

(Yes, I noticed the potential double entendre in that sentence but it wasn't planned - it just slipped out just like this one.)

(For example; Patrick Dangerfield's team could be called Danger's Destroyers, etc). The 4 captains are all given a complete and up-to-date list of current players from the AFL. They then take it in turns to pick which ever player they want until they reach let's say 25 players each. Those players then play for the team they have been picked in. The teams play a round robin style of competition to decide who is the winner. It can be for charity or for anything else the AFL want to organize it with. Obviously the availability of each player and what time of the year you be best suited would have to be looked at. But's it's like Fantasy Footy that we all play on the internet but in reality.

It would be good in theory.
But the best players aren't gonna play their best footy. They'll play half arsed. Tackling would be down, the pace would be down. The game would look slow and shit.
Check out the NFL Pro Bowl for an example. The guys run up to each other and cuddle each other to tackle.
