10 rounds now into the 2023 season and just as the ladder begins separating itself, so does the elite talent of the competition. 13 of the previous 22 have maintained their quality form through five more rounds of footy, while some typical stars have flourished into the middle section of the season.
A plethora of players can count themselves stiff to be missing out given their stats or performance relative to team success. The likes of Oscar Allen, Noah Anderson and Luke Ryan have put together best & fairest worthy seasons thus far but unfortunately miss out on a spot.
The three bottom sides, West Coast, North Melbourne and Hawthorn, go unrepresented in this team, while Richmond and Essendon each hold players on the fringe of selection. Seven clubs feature multiple players, with two premiership fancies managing three each in our rolling All-Australian side after Round 10.
