We started the Team of the year last year and the criteria was, the players with the highest Backpacker Points at seasons end would be the team of the year and All-Stars team for the opening match of the season against the marauders.
That way, it did away with controversy over who may have selected the side. Essentially the side is picked entirely on each individuals performance.
Last year there were two panthers players, this year there were 3 bluebags. It's just the way the cookie crumbles.
So griffo, the team picks itself, no one 'selects it'
