At the risk of being stoned to death by 90% of the RWO
Underrated... BEN MATTHEWS!!!!!!!!!
Some people say Football is a matter of life and death - I say it's a lot more important than that!

Kingsley overrated? Only by Geelong IMO. Why else would they keep picking a FF who can't kick straight & shows little heart?
I still don't think other teams have realised how valuable Buchanan is to us...long may it continue.
I honestly thought Nathan Brown was overrated last year!

Here! Here!
If you listen to the 3AW call of the GF (and probably Ten's commentary too) they had already given Judd the Norm Smith in the first quarter - just because he looks flashy. Orgasm - god use of the word!
Most of his possessions in the game ended up as ineffective. In fact I did my own stats of the last half and Fosdike and Kirk touched the ball as many times as Judd.
30 years of coaching the best financed team (including several major salary cap breaches) and 4 flags. Snowy on the tram could have done that.
Overrated - Robert Walls. Went to carlton when the Drover's Dog could have won them a flag! Then failed miserably everywhere else.
Many of these former premiership coaches coached in a time when only 3 or 4 teams could possibly win the flag! Remember, you old south supporters? The days when we would win one or two games and our big highlight was to play Fitzroy or North and have a chance of snagging a win? Beating the good teams was an absolute impossibility because of personale, money etc etc.
Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

Snowy from the tram should get a job as an AFL coach.
Sheedy has been coaching since 1980 and he has won only 4 premierships. In that time only won club has won more premierships and that is Hawthorn. They won in 83, 86, 88, 89 & 91 which was effectively the same group of players. (allbeit the greatest group of players any club has assembled at one time since the beginning of the VFL)
Sheedy won in 84, 85 , 93 and 2000 which is 3 different groups of players.
If it is so easy you simpleton why has no other club been able to win more flags in the last 26 years.only
This is his 26th year, and as HBB said, he's won with effectively 3 different groups of players and only one team has won more flags during that period.
Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.
