[QUOTE="William18, post: 644071, member: 38439"] Overrated is a relative term. All it means is that you believe one player is worse than the average opinion of that player. A player cannot be overrated without some people rating him highly. You're basically an essential part of Conrad's argument! I think Lomu was all the attributes you mention but I don't think he deserves the revered tone. I have seen him ranked as high as the best rugby player to ever play the game. To me that is definitely overrating him. He's an all time great but at the lower end of the scale. He would probably rank about 40th if I ever listed my all time great players. As for big wingers well I think Nadolo is a good example that you need more than size. The good defences this season have shut Nadolo down well. He has barely been a feature of the big games for the Crusaders. Israel Folau and Julian Savea have all round games and have shut stood up when their teams needed them. [/QUOTE]
