Really hard to do one of these because i haven't seen anyone play prior to mid '60.
But i'll give it a burl later and base it from mid '60s onwards if that's okay

It would be slim pickings if only 2001 to 2004 LT.
Without even having to think, here's a couple to help your list along PS.

FB: Gaspar - AA 2001
CHB: Holland - excellent in 2001
HBF: Cameron - excellent in 2001
Ruck: Ottens - excellent in 2001
Wing: Johnson

Campbell and Brown could slot into any of several positions.

I agree. (sort of)
If you can only choose from the 21st century then the team would unfortunately be mostly the 2001 side. :-[
It's definitely a joke but I dont find it particularly funny.
I much prefer the last 100 years being the century to choose from.
