I'm sure there is one out there but can't find it atm. Interested to see what people think!

Clearly right now it's Trent Cotchin.

All time would have to be Chris Grant.

No offence meant at all! Just opinions!
Both players above are fine players- but not the champions some would say.

You've just made a case for Chris Grant as the most under-rated

I wouldn't say trent cotchin is overrated necessary, his best is as good d as anyone. Hopefully replacing the bigger bodies in tuck and jackson, helps him out and allows him to get back to that 2012 form, being one of the best in the competition
 
I think Lions fans overrate Rockliff's overall ranking across the comp a bit.

Players from other teams I don't seem to rate as high are
- Big Luke Hodge
- Dyson Heppell
- Keiran Jack
- Patrick Dangerfield
- Michael Barlow
- Harry Taylor

The most overrated player of all time is Daniel Wells. Seems to become a better player with every game missed through injury.

Agree with Jack. Doesn't do a hell of a lot.
 
I'm going to get jumped, but Hodge as a captain. Good player, but "the best captain eva" is way over the top. Cringworthy when they compare him to the likes of Voss.

Also spends a lot of time across half back without an opponent..

It's all subjective, I guess, but Cotchin's down game against North was due as much to the really good job they did blanketing him, seems unfair to hang him on the back of that, he had a good season otherwise.

In terms of Grant, he kicked 50-odd goals as a 17-year old, should have a Brownlow to his name*, could play up forward (kicked over 500 goals) and take on some of the best forwards going around down back. Reckon he'd be pretty hard to overrate, personally.

EDIT: Can't recall if the suspension Grant copped for striking was warranted, but certainly had a great year

Taylor is a strange nomination. Absolute star. Quintessential swingman.
 
Right now Joel Selwood.

All time would be Polly Farmer.

How many games did you see Polly play? My Dad reckons he was better than any othe ruck at the time and dominated games.

Overrated: Stringer

All time: NicNat. Maybe Maxwell even though he wasnt rated that highly.
