How big is an AFL Fantasy Classic squad and which positions do I need?

A Classic squad is 30 players, made up of:

• 8 defenders
• 10 midfielders
• 3 rucks
• 8 forwards
• 1 utility on the bench, who can be any position

Of the 30, 22 are on-field players who score each week and 8 are on the bench. Four of the bench players are emergencies.
