I hope that's a joke. This bloke is a champ!

For mine, Koschitzke couldnt be considered because I think the saints are the only ones that actually rate him. Mine would have to be either Jared Brennan or Andrew Mackie. Mackies last year or so has been terrible. His kicking is woeful.
And Brennan, well he does one good thing a game with one hand and that's about it.


Deadly serious ... didn't say he wasn't any good, just massively overrated.
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

The bloke is one of the best forwards in the game. Absolute superstar

Daniel Wells, on the basis of how highly he was rated when the Kangas picked him up all those years ago.

CK, you are only serving to prove Dadja's point, look how high you rate him. No one could be that good, therefore, he is overrated.

He's a top player, but hardly a superstar. Superstars don't cry. ;)

You can not be serious on O'Brien and Rutten. Both great players and would make every team in the country.

Actually I agree with Harry o being overrated. Was at the Richmond v collingwood game last week. Magpie supporters love him.
Seriously the bloke runs and bounces the ball, and kicks a good goal every now and then. But seriously, teams are often going through his man. His defensive skills are crap. I do not rate him that high and think his excitement factor is way over done

The big Q at west coast. Who gives crap if he can kick the ball 80 metres, youve got to get a kick first. Always gets raved about but never seen him have a good game

O'Brien would. As for Rutten, there's no way he'd get a game at Collingwood, Geelong or Essendon for a start. He could rent out his arse as a superscreen to show movies on and he moves like a glacier.......

You should be thanking Carlton mate, otherwise it would have been a number 4 pick. In fact, I wouldn't be thanking Carlton, would have got a better player with pick 4 :lol:

A tie between Tippett and K Cornes. I thought about Dangerfield too, but he's more inconsistent than over-rated.

Stevie J, Paul Chapman, Joel Selwood, although you do need to be rated in order for someone to over rate you, so not sure if these players qualify
