The 22under22 side for the 2025 AFL season has been named, with Brisbane leading the way with five selections.

Will Ashcroft, Levi Ashcroft, Darcy Wilmot, Jaspa Fletcher, and Logan Morris have all been named, with the older Ashcroft being named for the second time.

Collingwood's Nick Daicos continued to add to his storied achievements, claiming a fourth selection, and third as captain, drawing close to Western Bulldogs champion Marcus Bontempelli's record of five.

North Melbourne's Harry Sheezel made it three from three with yet another inclusion, while St Kilda superstar Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera and Adelaide's Josh Rachele have also made the side for the past three seasons.

Wanganeen-Milera and Ashcroft, along with Bulldogs forward Sam Darcy, were all chosen by more than 90 per cent of fans' team, with the latter ranking the highest with a 97 per cent selection rate.

A total of 10 players were named for the first time.

Fans voted for the team from an initial 40-person squad compiled by St Kilda legend Leigh Montagna, with support from the AFLPA and Champion Data.
Players must've been aged 22 or under for the entirety of the season (inclusive of AFL Grand Final Day, September 27) and have played a minimum of 12 games throughout the 2025 season to be eligible.
