The most underrated player in the league

 

[juss]

Gun. Just not rated that highly externally.

 

[Milanista28]

He aight

Has one of the best handballs in the league, was looking good a couple of years ago when he started playing midfield but broke his foot maybe?

Got steamrolled by Buddy mid-2015 and obviously got a serious concussion because his form fell off a cliff after that.
Then had a 'minor' break in his leg (if there is such a thing) which ruined 2016.

It just shows how fine the difference between is being fully fit and just going.

Can you please provide some template responses for us all to use? I dont trust myself to describe him in a way that adequately reflects his legend.

I thought "Footballing God" or "TheReal GOAT" just didnt cut it.

Pls help.

Possibly was the player most opposition supporters told Richmond fans that we'd never win a premiership with him in the side.

Between this and your "Shane Edwards is better than Cyril Rioli" thread, I'm starting to think you might be Shane.

Can never trust anyone after what he have seen in the US over the last couple of days.

 

[DrEvil_]

A better player than Cyril that's for sure.

No that would be Vickery. And we were right.

 

[Luv_our_club]

A better player than Cyril that's for sure.

"because Edwards can go in the midfield and Cyril cannot"

LOL... wrong twice.

Possibly maybe perhaps how far we going back here? No one shits on Edwards, he's not elite, but a decent player.

I do recall thinking he should have won the NS though.

Who deserves respect?
Not those demanding it.
That would be solipsistic.
Getting respect is for egotists.

Almost certainly would be Jake King and Steve Morris

 

[HTPunter]

He`s good and he`s seen as good. Everyone recognises him as a good player.

 

[TiggerMan22]

This guy is underrated by most of the general AFL public yet is as skilled as anyone.
He has the golden tough like players like Cyril and doesn't need many touches to have a massive impacts.

Arguably is the best handballer in the league aswell. So crafty and quick that most people completely miss what he's done.

No.1 thing against him as been his consistency but lately he has been doing it every single game.

 

[Punt Road Feral]

He’s certainly lighting it up tonight

 

[Kangas_11]

FMD Shane, how many threads do you need in one day?

What team does he play for?

 

[ARES]

One of the most intelligent players, just does things from nothing...

 

[Firestarter]

And this is why supporters shouldn't make shilling threads about their own team. So much ____ing cringe.

 

[LordLucifer]

Over-rated seagull who goes missing too often.

Don't think you know what overrated means
