Opinion 10 most under rated current players

[Jesslc]

The last two weeks and I think it will be more.His foot skills are average at best but has got the most out of himself.
He's part of the reason the Roos are average and not a top 4 side, so many vanilla players.

Lol you know your footy

Rockliff underrated?

The bloke is overrated and wouldn't be much in a non-supercoach world.

Interesting, he isn't what I'd call underrated. Some problem do overrate him but he is our best player, ahead of both Beams and Hanley. Averaged 35.3 disposals, 9.3 tackles and 8.5 clearances a game after he was able to stop wearing his rib protector this year which was Round 18 I believe. An absolute machine.

Like Dahlhaus. Easily our best player this year. He's a star.

 

[Scottish Bob]

Ben Cunnington.

I heard he grew up in or around a dairy farm. Is that true?

Everyone could pick out at least 5 under rated players from their own team, so from opposition teams IMO:
Dylan Grimes, Ibbotson, Sheppard, Justin Clarke, Tom Lynch (adelaide), Stanley, Shane Edwards, Mumford and Dale Morris are ones I can think of

Anthony miles

 

[Kony Abbott]

It seems impossible to be an underrated Hawks player but absolutely agree on Ben Stratton, and Shiels too.

Shaun Burgoyne is another. Would be the player I pick from Hawthorn every day of the week.

personally think he is overrated.

Good player no doubt. But media experts constantly have him among the top 30 players in the AFL which is completely wrong imo. Also should never have been anywhere near the AA 40 man squad. Luke Hodge did a hell of a lot more

It's coz he just cruises through the regular season and saves his best for the important games.

He's a gun.

He's a gun.

Not saying he isn't good. But surely you don't believe he deserved to be in the 40 man squad? And that he's a top 30 player in the comp?

You could argue any one of 50 players deserved to be in that squad.

I will say that he's not what you would call an A+ player. He would be the rung below.

Kade Simpson, Ben Cunnington, Garrick Ibbotson, Cale Hooker, Sean Dempster, Jordan Roughead, Ben Stratton, Grant Birchall

 

[Scott Steiner]

Luke Brown
Andrejs Everitt

Nathan Brown, Gaff, Shuey and Priddis, Everitt, Liam Picken, Shane Edwards, Jonathon Ceglar

Some dogs fans think he's not even in our best 22.

Garlett...are you joking? Last time he got a kick againsta top 8 club?

Against top 8 sides: 11.8 touches, 5 tackles and 1.9 goals/game
Against bottom 10 sides: 9.9 touches, 3.3 tackles and 1.8 goals/game

see you clearly think hes averge, yes? he kicked forty goals as a small forward in one of the worst attacking teams in the league.... I think its fair enough

Garlett averages 2015:

Against top 8 sides: 11.8 touches, 5 tackles and 1.9 goals/game
Against bottom 10 sides: 9.9 touches, 3.3 tackles and 1.8 goals/game

I want to like this post twice. I suppose a supportive comment will be enough for a second like.

There's nothing like empirical evidence to slay flogs. Chances Thetrader15 shows up in the thread again?

No better in clutch moments especially in finals.
