The Greek Team of the Century was a representative team chosen in 2004 in the sport of Australian rules football. [1]

Anthony Koutoufides and Peter Daicos were named vice-captains; Lou Richards was captain. The criterion for selection was that any Greek blood whatsoever constituted eligibility for the team. The farthest bloodline was from Russell Morris, whose fourth great-grandfather was Greek. [2] Koutoufides was also listed in the Italian Team of the Century.

The Squad

Australian Football League historian Col Hutchinson supplied the selectors with a list of 28 players with which to pick the final team.
