Rockcliff Most Underrated player in the AFL?

[vtaced]

I just don't think he gets the recognition he deserves from the Melbourne media. The guy is a jet! This is coming from an Essendon supporter too

[hawkers65]

Completely agree, blokes like Mundy and Priddis out West deserve some recognition too!

Bigtime. Was talking about Priddis with a mate over the wkend. Having a huge year and is so consistent even in a team that is clearly playing below its best. Priddis would probably be the most underrated in my book, closely followed by Rockliff

[Big Mac]

Most players outside of Victoria seem to be very underrated - Although I expect that to change as the game grows

Looking at Fyfe, Barlow and the Sydney mob, it just takes their club to have a bit of success to get that recognition. As Gold Coast rise, so are people realising that blokes like OMeara, Bennell, Prestia are all guns

Rockliff just runs around looking for possessions. Doesn't make him a good player.

Cal Ward is twice the player.

Imagine what the hype around Fyfe would be like if he played for a Victorian team though. The kid is already a top 10 (arguably better) midfielder at only 22 years of age.

I reckon people already know, all the talk was on him before he re signed as "the player to build a team around" and a team should fork out a million dollar a season contract for him

Fyfe is the only player mentioned in this thread that is overrated

Compared to all the other midfielders that dont look for possessions? Rockliff has his 10 tackles a game to go with his 30 touches

Rioli?

[_wato]

Rioli is a hack. Needs cotton wool all over him.

Priddis could be a smokey for the Brownlow, he polls lots of votes and he's played well most games. All Australian a little too far?

Rocky is starting to get his recognition from those who KNOW AFL whereas the common supporter would just know him as a good mid and one of Brisbane's best.

Fyfe not overrated, he is an absolute gun.

I'd rather be a hack with two premiership medals than a gun with none.

Plot twist! Who's the most overrated then?
Rioli?
Bit harsh when it's due to injuries...
Fyfe?
Pfft, he's a gun.
Jack Riewoldt gets my bet.
Or Spud Cloke, "the best contested mark in the game". Never have I seen someone drop so many easy marks in a season!
