Cyril Rioli is still the most overrated player of all time.

Why is this about us?

Beats Sydney, first thing they wanna do is tell Geelong.

Sydney already know.

 

[halfback dasher]

Lol , I'd still take Motlop .

Looks as if poor Cyrily is never gonna rid himself of this label. Can't even win himself a Crimmins medal ffs.
Ppfftt, even Josh Gibson has done that!

It was a good clutch goal but my god it wasnt that good. It was just a goal.

Exactly. Even Tom Spudkins has done better...

What ever happened to the OP, oh that's right he cancelled his account after a Handbagger loss.

I don't know how you have such goo resistance but I dare say it's a super power

 

[Frankston Rover]

Backfire tag please Mods.

Anyone who think Cyril is overrated is as dumb as shit.

He is ahead of Gibbo until Gibbo gets a Norm Smith later in the year.

True. Even Dennis Armfield is better than Cyril from 50 out.

Is that showing how quickly the overrated effect with Rioli travels?

It was just a set kick from 55. It wasnt a buddy franklin run the ball down the wing then kick a goal, or the one when he jumped over the collingwood player to kick the ball from 65. Those are goo worthy goals

His game as a whole was epic. That's the reason why this thread exists - people think he's doesn't do much.

Last night was yet another example that he's a champion.

Cyril's 15 possessions just as damaging as most players who achieve 35+ posies... e.g Dangerfield

No, that's wrong. 35 is more than 15, therefore is has to be better...

Would take Rioli in a heartbeat. Does things effortlessly, similar to a Darren Jarman in that they look so composed, they almost look lazy.
Then when the time comes to add a flash of brilliance, they just click into another gear.

 

[van peebles]

We took Stevie J instead of cyril.
More goals and more liked by the crowd,also more hurt he creates for geelong fans.

Andrew Phillips also kicked a winning set shot from outside 50 earlier in the year.

Champion

 

[Bodicifer]

Cyril Schmyril...we had Jarrad Grant

Good context there.

Cyril adds pressure to our forward line.
Kicks goals.
Takes great marks.
Has elite speed and skills.
Does many things that aren't 'stats'

And he'd walk into any club in the country.

But I'm rapt you've got Phil Andrews. I'm sure he'll be great. But I'm happier having Cyril.

 

[Lethality]

It was just a set kick from 55.

Set shot from 55 on the wrong side for a left footer to win the game and keep Hawthorn on top of the ladder. Nothing special about that at all

 

[T2B_]

Lol look at the Hawfies turn on NN for having a balanced opinion

So he's a glorified Dennis Armfield

Really though, the word champion gets thrown around far too easily and the use of it here just vindicates the thread.
