The term "journeyman" is used to identify sports stars who can't seem to stay in one spot and have played in stints with multiple teams/clubs across their careers.

When it comes to the AFL, there haven't been many across the game's history to play at more than three clubs, so I set out to rank the players in today's game based on the "journeyman" criteria of three clubs or more.

This list is based on the players' current form, but doesn't ignore the ability they've shown in previous seasons, with some of the players listed not playing much or at all this season.

Electricity, explosiveness and tenacity are terms that come to mind when it comes to describing ‘The Package' on the field. Stringer cemented his legacy as a Western Bulldogs premiership player and provided some good moments to a struggling Bombers side before only recently moving to the Giants. He's disruptive in contests and a great on-field kick at goal while being infectious in his playstyle.
