I would have Jordon, Sholl and Ash ahead of the last couple of bench spots based on this year. Hard to fault the rest much though, good effort.

Scrimshaw was 22 on 1 Jan so wouldnt qualify. But he is having a brilliant year.
Remove Bailey Smith if it's 2021 form. Lucky Treloar & Dunkley are out or he'd be dropped.

Imagine going to all the trouble of picking a team.and then totally invalidating your opinion by not including Thilthorpe. He is the most talented player under 22 (read: also any age bracket) in the comp bar none.

Ridley is a October birthday, Bolton December iirc so both qualify by official rules

Scrimshaw turns 23 during finals therefore disqualifies him from selection.

I like it but in terms of the actual team I think they name 1 defender, 2 mids and 1 forward eligible player for the bench, so won't get all 3 of Powell, Lukiosus and Quaynor on the bench. Also think if Schoenberg is stiff to miss, Tarryn Thomas has to be too. Bailey Smith probably in on 2020 form rather than 2021 but will still likely end up in the side.
Overall I'd say this side from adammania will be reasonably close - the first 18 picks itself.
I'm pretty sure both are 22 or under for the entire season, and the only two we'd have are Balta and Bolton.

I'm not sure why you're comparing them. One is a key forward and the other a ruck/forward.

I dare say anyone turning 23 during finals would have been 22 on 1 Jan...

Official rules states anyone who is 22 for the entirety of the AFL season is eligible. Aka birthday after grand final

Kozi is there
Backline really tough to get into
Taylor, CJ, Day are all quality.

Gets confusing with the Hawthorn player.

Problem with Day is that he's only played the three matches so far. And was pretty quiet on Friday.

I'll do it club-by-club. Apologies if I've missed someone crucial.
Adelaide: Sholl, Schoenberg and Thilthorpe would all be probable squad members. Maybe Butts as well. Not sure if any of them are in the 22 yet, though.
Brisbane: Starcevich should be a lock. Bailey would be in the side right now. Can't think of anyone else that qualifies.
Carlton: Walsh. That's about it, though.
Collingwood: Think Quaynor would be thereabouts. Daicos made it last year and is still eligible (born in November) but probably hasn't quite stood out enough for the 22. Would Poulter be in the mix if he goes as well for the rest of the season as he's started?
Essendon: Ridley was an October birth so is still eligible and presumably makes it. Cox and maybe Perkins for the squad. Draper's birthday is a couple of days after the GF so I think he still qualifies, but would have to do very well given his injury to have a shot.
Fremantle: Brayshaw has to be there. Cerra probably will be there by the end of the season. Serong would at least be in the squad. Again can't think of anyone else that qualifies though Frederick might've had a shot but for injury.
Geelong: This is an Under 22 side, not an Over 32 side
Gold Coast: King is a lock; Powell, Anderson and Lukosius would be thereabouts. Rankine might have a chance too whereas Rowell could push for it with a dominant second half of the season.
GWS: Taylor was a lock pre-injury, might still have a crack if he gets back quickly enough. Green and Ash thereabouts.
Hawthorn: CJ would probably be in the side now. If Scrimshaw was born a few weeks later he'd be thereabouts, too. Worpel, Morrison, Kozi and Moore all maybes; Day a chance if he gets back to his pre-injury form.
Melbourne: Pickett a lock. Jackson probably a lock because of the paucity of other rucks. Jordon and Rivers would be thereabouts.
North Melbourne: Thomas and (pending that injury didn't hurt his momentum) Stephenson would be in the mix. Powell a good chance for the squad at least, whereas Bonar might've had a chance pre-injury.
Port Adelaide: Rozee has a shot if he blitzes the second half of the year, Butters and Duursma make it if it wasn't for their injury. Drew might have a shot at the squad.
Richmond: Bolton was born in November so has to be there, Balta would probably be in the side right now too. CCJ's probably started too late given that there are plenty of other options in his position.
St Kilda: Higgins would be thereabouts. Clark similar to Daicos as a 2020 player who probably hasn't done quite enough to make it (and now he'll miss weeks with a broken jaw...) King's probably played himself out of it.
Sydney: Surprisingly tough to find players that would definitely make it, most of the youth has been more 'impact' than 'consistency'. Warner and McCartin would be at least a squad member, Gulden and Rowbottom maybes with strong second halves of the season. McInerney and Wicks maybes for the squad.
West Coast: Allen. Petrucelle might have a shot at the squad.
Western Bulldogs: Naughton is a lock. Smith is borderline as to whether he deserves it but I think his rep gets him in. If Weightman he keeps up his form he'll go very close.
Adelaide: Sholl, Schoenberg and Thilthorpe would all be probable squad members. Maybe Butts as well. Not sure if any of them are in the 22 yet, though.
Brisbane: Starcevich should be a lock. Bailey would be in the side right now. Can't think of anyone else that qualifies.

So it is different to Rising Star which says must be 20 or under on 1 Jan of that year.
I guess it would be too much to ask for consistency. And also means the Best 22 under 22 is actually the best 22 under 23.
So its too much to ask them to be able to count as well.

I thought he was quite good on Friday. Always seemed to be there to stop Swans going forward.
Or maybe I get him and Scrimshaw mixed up...

The problem for you with that statement is that Thilthorpe has made it
