Two main criteria, players must have played at least two seasons in the APFL from that decade, while it is also broken into a loose structure of 18 mids, 12 forwards, 12 defenders, 4 wings and 4 rucks.
I've had seven judges from different clubs (not Angle Vale given they didn't see the more than half the decade) develop their lists and rank them from 1-50. Got two results back so far and this will be fairly interesting. We'll start with 50-45 next week (April 29) I think.

Would imagine there would be a massive difference between everyone. Especially after the top dozen or so!

Hamley had one year of dominance - the absolute premiums in that team (Stribling, Dowdell, Duncan) were only there for one season, and so probably dont meet the minimum requirements.

Yeah, there's been a fair plethora of ruckmen alone to nail down to 4, and then to place them in an order, and then to merge them into a list of 50 with so many on-ballers etc.
There's probably half a dozen of each genre that pick themselves and the rest you could throw a blanket over and not be incorrect, I might even try one myself.

For Ruckman you’d have to choose Light at 1 then you could throw a blanket over Walker, Feast, Ferrally for the remaining 3

Guilty. We almost got them. They had some guns in that team.

The Para Hills boys were there for 3-4 years weren't they, play Rep footy every year, gave a lot of players a fair bit of trouble.
And didn't they finish 3rd or 4th the year before the flag when Greeny and Taylor where still there.
Great lads too.

That's pretty consistent. YP did a similar thing and they had around 120 different names from their 12? Judges.
Look forward to reading it.
