Greek Team of the Century explained

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.
