To celebrate the club centenary, the author has chosen the following twelve players to comprise the team of the century. It is obviously impossible to compare players from different eras due to varying conditions and changing rules, however I feel that these players would more than hold their own against any other club combination. Some players were not considered either because they played few matches for Souths or because their representative careers were played with other clubs. Players not considered due to the above criteria include- WA Brown, D Tallon, AW Grout, KA Archer, SC Trimble, and CJ McDermott. The team is lodged in chronological order.
