The ultra-competitive Langdon will be flying the flag for WA against football luminaries Robert Walls and Leigh Matthews and recently retired champions Nathan Buckley and Glenn Archer in the Celebrity League.
But, as far as the competition's sole Sandgroper is concerned, reputations and state jumpers will count for little when hostilities commence next week.
"I couldn't really care where they came from. If they came from Western Australia I'd still be trying to beat them," Langdon said.
"Being from WA, sometimes in some situations it gives you a little bit more satisfaction, but I'm just out there to try and beat them.
"If I play scrabble I'm trying to win. So when it comes to Dream Team it's the same philosophy. You're only playing games, and we’re only keeping score because you want to win and there's nothing better than having that winning feeling."
Langdon played 100 games for the Eagles between 1988 and 1995 and, since retiring from the game, has become an influential commentator in WA.
Less well known is the fact that he's been playing fantasy football every year since retiring from the AFL.
The 1992 premiership centre half-forward still takes part in a privately organised fantasy league that started in 1996 and he's competed in the Toyota AFL Dream Team competition since its inception, ranking inside the top 2500 at his best.
Langdon said his role in the media had helped him with Dream Team and vice-versa.
"From a commentator's point of view, what it does is it gives you a good focus on everyone in the League, rather than just looking at specific teams," he said.
"You're looking at accumulators of the ball and all facets of the game. It's not just who gets the most kicks and marks and handballs, it's about who tackles a lot and who doesn't give away too many free kicks. You've got to look at all facets of the game."
Langdon said he expected tough competition from former Pie great Buckley for this year's premiership, while a clash with journalist Caroline Wilson was a must-win match.
"I think Robert Walls was right when he said he'd give the game away if he lost to Caroline Wilson," he said. "That's one I'll definitely have to make sure I win but I'm not too worried, to be honest. I'd almost put that one down as a bye weekend!"
