I’m stunned Collingwood supporters would rather Moore over DeGoey if faced with that choice

Why you say That?
As much as you guys bang on about Moore, he’s just an average/perhaps slightly above average KPD. DeGoey is elite and has match-winning power that only a few in the comp have.

Guess you have not watched many Collingwood Games. Moore would been All-Australian this year IF he played 20 Games
I think it will largely come down to how many more minutes he can spend in the midfield. If he can up it to 60/40 in the midfield then I think he could be a top 10 player in the league. If not then he will probably remain what he is with maybe a couple more years of minor improvement.
Judging by the pre-season and round 1, he seems to be spending more time than last year through the middle.

Has any footballer in history not been "overrated" according to all the keyboard warriors. Most overused word in history

Could say the Same about Players being "Underrated"?
This is a bizarre overreaction. It’s obviously completely subjective, but there are always gonna be players who we personally believe are rated too highly or too lowly by either the general public, or certain supporters. I believe you overrate Moore if you think he’s a more valuable commodity than DeGoey. Just my opinion.

I am interested in your Opinion you think Moore is Overrated?

Moore would probably be worth more to Collingwood than De Goey due to the fact that of their KPP's that are 25 or under they have a games tally of 73*, 72 of which were Moore's.
*Not including Scharenberg because he isn't really a KPP.

Only 2 I can think of Moore and Kelly as Under 25 KPP we have

I would not call Lynch and Cameron a Purer KPP. They are Cross between Ruck and KPP though I guess Moore could also play ruck but would be after those 2

Oh you're in the fantasy land where rucks aren't key position, okay.
To me and I believe to most, key position refers to key forward, centre half-forward, centre half-back and full back. A ruck is really a midfielder, but of course they do rotate in and out of key positions at times because of their height.

Rucks are definitely KPP's. That's why when people refer to the spine (your typical KPP's) they include the ruck.

I don't think I've ever seen it not be included in the spine until now.
Spine to me was that plus your centre because when naming a side they were all up the middle of the board or sheet.

I know it's all subjective and your welcome to your assessments, but this is massively under-selling Darcy Moore IMO.
The traits that he has, proven form and the mix of athleticism, size and footy IQ are an extremely rare commodity. I of course am a massive wrap for Moore and really only see his body as his single obstacle in him becoming a consistent, AA calibre KPD.
Fair call. Good post.
