Doubtful they'll get the plaudits they deserve while North has nothing around them. Just like Ed Curnow and Liam Jones during our down years.
They never got it when they were playing finals either.

Mitch Duncan is still underrated.
Disagree with both of these calls. I think it's agreed by everyone that they are both excellent players, albeit solid, no-frills, unspectacular types. Just because they aren't hyped up as superstars of the comp, that doesn't make them underrated. Channel 7 buffoons always crap on about Geelong's elite superstars: Dangerfield, Selwood and Hawkins, but when the pundits get serious about discussing the Cats, the talk quickly turns to their consistent midfielders, Duncan and Guthrie, plus Stewart and Blicavs in defence.Cam Guthrie is Geelongs best mid last few years, wouldn't know about it though.
He has put on a bit of muscle and is just so courageous, will give his all for the team. Is also a very good kick and exceptional markI am surprised powell made it.
He's bloody good and i look stupid give i doubted him early.
Miller is a gun. Certainly deserves more plaudits as a player and leader
The Geelong guy who is underrated, at least outside the club, is the Irishman, Mark O'Connor. A no thrills player who week after week does his bit. In 2021 he has become a stopper. Sadly he won't play against Richmond because of injury, but his jobs on Neale and Mitchell were excellent.Disagree with both of these calls.

I don't who you'd class as underrated from the Cats. They're in the Top 4 every year. Most of their players are rated about right. Maybe some of their younger less-heralded players such Jack Henry, Jed Bews, Gryan Miers or Brandon Parfitt. But even these guys... are they really that underrated?
Cause he doesn’t have inspector gadget arms or bound out of defence with his hair flowing in the wind.Jacob Weitering his a star...
Always gets over looked for Darcy Moore or Harrison Andrews

Really? I always thought the reverseI think it’s more to do with Jones being quite a good offensive CHB who isn’t nearly as good defensively as Weitering. So Weitering doesn’t get as much opportunity to rack up stats as he’s usually on the oppositions best forward.
Weitering is better offensively and defensively.Really? I always thought the reverse
ellis is a star, boom youngster....not quite a game breaker so tigers turned him in a more than handy gut running role playing defensive winger to suit their needs. now at the suns he can do the lot and be more of a prime mover and ball magnet again. with excellent leadership qualities, the suns picked up a couple of beauties in greenwood and ellis.This thread is further evidence for Brandon Ellis.
This weekend against Collingwood his stats were.
35 Disposals
97% Disposal Efficiency
16 Marks
5 Tackles
1 Goal
Just about every Pies inside 50 he was there to cut them off, clean up the ball and set up our counter attack. Without Ellis the Pies beat us comfortably in my opinion.

If he is their coolest head, they are in a hole.Frost is terribly underrated! He is Hawthorne's most coolest head in a crisis, unlike the rest who play like a deer in headlights.
Yep.Yeah Ellis is underrated. Very good player and seems to keep improving.
Credit all round here, Richmond for letting him go so he could get the big payday and Ellis for dedicating himself to the Suns and delivering on the field for them.
Ed Langdon, currently the best winger in the game but nobody notices.
Langdon has been a massive part of Melbourne's start to the year both offensively and defensively.Reckon Ellis is both more underrated and been the better wingman this year.
Cam Guthrie broke out in to career best form last year and was rewarded with an All Australian and B&F, just about everyone acknowledged how good of a year he had.Touk Miller is an absolute jet!!!
Criminally underrated for years now, stands up regardless of how the team plays, can't really remember a bad game from him, super consistent.
Noah Anderson just fitted in nicely, already performing at a good level with no fuss made.
Cam Guthrie is Geelongs best mid last few years, wouldn't know about it though.
Seen his name mentioned a few times but not sure why.
I think it’s more to do with Jones being quite a good offensive CHB who isn’t nearly as good defensively as Weitering. So Weitering doesn’t get as much opportunity to rack up stats as he’s usually on the oppositions best forward.
