no, i just think that Essendon are rated exactly as they should be - one of the greatest.
I also think that the majority of theyre players are rated exactly as they should be.
I was considering whether to put Ramauskas, 1 year ago i would've but his made a name for himself. Rioli got close but just missed.

James Walker plays for Fremantle. Hes a perfect example, gets a lot of possesions from the back, hes a perfect player for this team, because he does a lot of work and doesn't get any recognition. A bit of background info on him, hes 21, backline player, in 22 games had 327 disposals putting him 6th for Freo, should be someone to look out for in the future.

2 or 3 years ago Blakey would've got a spot, but hes started to get the recognition he deserves. Sanderson went pretty close.

To continue a parochial view-what about Todd Curley? Went from being an ordinary forward to being an integrel part of the bulldog backline, second in importance only to Matty Croft.
 
WCE2000, I think you have overated Brayden Lyle by saying he is underrated. In fact he is hopeless. He is slow, he can't kick and he always turns the ball over.

What,no Brenton Sanderson ?

Who is James Walker ?
Sierakowski can't really be included because he's had knee injuries .


I know WCE 2000 already explained.
But I couldnt help myself

James walker is one of if not the fastest player in the Afl.22 years of age with exceptional skills, he was the 5th pick in the 97 draft (i think).
Will finally come into his own this year.

He has blonde hair and if i remember rightly killed your ronnie burns in the last encounter.Better suited to the midfiled though.

Welsh got 47 goals in 2000. Name forwards such as Waterhouse and M. O'Loughlin got 53. If you rate Welsh as shithouse yet M. O'Loughlin got only 6 more goals and was eighth overall in the AFL - well than that does indeed establish Welsh is at least a little underrated by some.

Can't speak for Sierakowski however, don't know how he went compared with name players in his position.

Good side that one, i was very close to putting Nicks in my time. Dont know about Yze though, he is pretty highly rated by everyone. Anyway, its your team.
