Where this came from

“Dudes can literally just sit around and name old sports players and just have the best time.”

This started as a game played in person: a group of AFL fans sit in a circle and take turns naming every player who made the All-Australian team for a given year, until someone can't come up with another name. This site turns that into a daily challenge anyone can play, with a running leaderboard.

How it works

• Every day, one year between 2000 and 2025 is selected — the same year for everyone.
• The ground shows all 22 All-Australian positions for that year, blank. Click a position and search for the player you think held it.
• You get one guess per position, per day. Once you guess, that position locks in.
• A guess only counts as correct if that player was named in that exact position that year — not just somewhere on the team.
• Correct guess: +1 point. Wrong guess: -1 point.
• Only today's All Aus Team is playable — there's no going back to replay past days.
• The leaderboard tracks everyone's cumulative score across every day played, and is public.
