overated afl players

[Adelaide Hawk]

When you consider how much they get paid, I'd say most, if not all of them are over-rated.

Certainly their skills (or lack of them) don't warrant the payment.

another one who burns it is matt priddis!!he seems to have so much time but still seems to kick it or hand ball it to the opposition.. i know he is young so i hope he does learn from it..

Not the best kick but is a very important player, Tackles hard and is a clearance king.

Should handball as much as he can.

is that because no coaches worry about his clearences,as 80% of the time the ball comes back over his head.?
you are right!! he should look to handball all the time.

Haha

I think they worry about his clearance ability but there is no doubt they let players like Fletcher, Priddis and to a lesser
extent Rosa have a free reign when they get the football because they know they have a very good chance of getting the ball back via a turnover compared to a LeCras, Kerr, Cox (been down a bit in that department) or someone who can break the zone (Hurn). Not that we have that many blokes who can hurt sides by foot at the moment.

spot on pup..as long as they shut kerr down there is not much that can hurt teams from the middle at this stage.. once the young blokes stop turning it over will be the time we rise up the ladder.. its just a matter of time..
