Cyril is a good player, but his not the player the media will have you believe he is, and it's a ******* nightmare listening to the commentary on channel 7 and fox footy whenever his anywhere near the ******* pill.
I don't think anyone really deserves the over exposure he has, but what you've got to remember it's not his fault Bruce has a wank whenever his within a 20 km basis and just because someone is overrated it doesn't make them a bad player.
Chris Judd for example, champion at West Coast and deserved the praise he got, but after about his 3rd year at Carlton, the amount of undeserved praise he got was ******* insane, even the umpires new he wasn't at his best as our own Brent Moloney beat him easily in the brownlow
We all know how good the umpires are when it comes to judging the best in the competition....

but to say Chris Judd was bad wasn't actually because he was bad, it was because you hated how overrated he was at the time, same with Cyril (except Cyril is definitely a better player then Judd was at that point). To say that Cyril is not good doesn't make sense, if I get you to tell me all of his career highlights you'd sound like an idiot.
Anyone who knows anything about football will be able to tell you that you can't be shit if you're a 4x premiership player and a Norm Smith medallist, because if you've been selected in 5 grand final teams and were judged best on ground in one of them, you've gotta be a bloody good player. In summary, is Cyril overrated? Shit yeah, is Cyril bad? **** no, always been a key player for Hawthorn since he first came into the competition and often stands up when his team needs him.
