I can't believe I forgot Jason Nightingale. He's severely underrated. Killer off the bench for the Dragons in a strange role.

Not sure if anyone's mentioned him yet, but Zeb Taia is a shoo-in! Most underrated player to have ever played the game! His mother even had severe doubts he could make his way out of the womb, he's that underrated.

Matt Orford. You all hate him, you love attacking him, you all study him wait for him to f**k up. But when he is awesome which is most of the time nothing but silence from you cowards.

Dane Tilse.

He would have to be one of the best value forwards out there, I can't imagine him being on big money. But he is making good metres, good defense and pops a nice offload now. Last year he was really solid and this year is the same if not better.

This year he has offered nothing to our side. When we are stuck in our own end (most of the time) he does not help us get out of there. Makes little to no yardage every run. Might go alright at a club who have some really big meter eaters, but for us he just doesn't do enough of the hard yakka when we need him to.
I agree severely over rated IMO. When i see him play all I see is silly offloads that put the team under pressure abd an unwillingness to do the dirty work. Too many times I see him crabbing across field with the ball in 2 hands throwing a million dummies to no one instead of tucking the ball under his arm and running hard

preaching to the chior mate, but i feel these days Tongue gets alot of wraps. He may not make rep teams but the joe blow on the street and expert analysis all agree he's a rep quality player. 18 months ago there was no question he was easily the most under-rated player in the game, but people have woken up to him now, he's getting a fair share of kudos from the right areas

Just to let you know - he was voted most under-rated by his peers in the player poll (I have only just read it).
