Most overrated player in the AFL currently?

Polly hands down

Changed the way the game was played did Polly. Sadly Victoria only got to see him in the 5 years he was at Geelong and then in the interstate carnivals. But arguably one of the greatest footballers.

Polly hands down

Yes he was innovative in many ways. Man of few words, let his actions do the talking.

By the way, I rate very highly rucks who are able to run the length of ground, backline to forwardline, helping out in both area.

Too short for today’s game. Jack Riewoldt is taller for reference.

Undoubtedly the greatest legacy for a ruckman though.

Absolute gentleman from everything i seen of him. His handball was revolutionary for a ruckman

There have been better rucks than Nic Nat, maybe you haven’t seen them play.

Polly, Maddern, Moss, TI etc.

That's great, but I never said he was better than any of them, or even anyone....

I said we haven't seen a ruckman like him before. I also said Gawn is better.

Fort just proved what we already knew - Rucks are over rated. All you need is someone who competes, if they can take marks even better.

Fort didn't "smash" Grundy, he broke even and that's all he needed to do.

It is the old 'ruckmen are like toilets' analogy.

You need a competent one and probably a good backup too - it can create a huge mess if you don't have one at all...

But do you really need to spend big bucks on a deluxe model? At the end of the day they are there to do a pretty dirty, physical job, and the deluxe ones have a tendency to break down leaving you with a tough hole to fill...

Swans lose a game and all of a sudden they have a heap of overrated players, what a load of crap. It’s one game.
